Classic Halma on the star board – play the computer or 2 to 6 players
Chinese Checkers offline – the classic star board, beautifully made
Saltaro is Chinese Checkers (also known as Halma or star checkers) on a warm wooden board with glowing glass marbles. Step into a neighbouring hole or jump over a piece – and after every jump, keep on jumping.
Play the computer – five honest levels
From Beginner to Grandmaster, every level sees the same open board you do and simply thinks deeper. The Chinese Checkers AI never sees anything you can’t – no cheating, no waiting. Earn a seal for each level you beat. A fair Chinese Checkers AI for every skill.
2 to 6 players on one device
Chinese Checkers for 2, 3, 4 or 6 players: put the tablet in the middle of the table and the board turns to whoever is up next. Every colour can be a human or the computer.
See every jump chain
Tap a piece and Saltaro shows every target – even long chains over five or six pieces. Unlimited undo in free play.
A daily sprint
Ten pieces, a board cluttered with boulders, four minutes – and everyone plays the same board. Cross it in as few moves as possible, climb the daily leaderboard and race other players in a ghost duel.
Chinese Checkers offline
Games against the computer, party mode and the daily sprint all work without internet. Only the leaderboard and duels need a connection.
Fair
Everything is free to play. Remove ads with a one-time purchase; fine boards (walnut, marble, slate) and pieces (glass marbles, wooden pegs, gems) are purely cosmetic. No subscription, no energy, no timers.
