Since Java is no longer supported in most browsers, our Java applets probably will not run unless you install an extension that will run them. We recommend installing the CheerpJ Applet Runner extension on Edge, Chrome, or another Chromium browser. If your browser still does support Java, and you're not using this extension, make sure this site is listed in your Java exceptions list. You should find this in the Security tab of your Java control panel.

V R Parton, 1952. Checkmate either king. Move a yellow-marked and a blue-marked unit each turn. The first move may move you into, or leave you in, check. Be sure you can get out. A machine player may resign if he/she cannot escape check on the first move. I decided a double-stalemate would lose.
