Kaz's Checkers is a 1996 Macintosh checkers program by Andrew Kisliakov, written in Symantec Think Pascal 4.0 as a Year 12 Computing Studies assessment project at Trinity Grammar School in Sydney. Despite its student-project origins, it offers a complete checkers experience for classic Mac OS.
Modes of Play
Players can challenge the computer, face another human at the same Mac, or simply watch two computer opponents play each other, useful for studying the AI's tactics.
Features
The program supports varying computer skill levels, the ability to record games for later replay, and a hall of fame to track the strongest finishes.
System Compatibility
The 68k binary runs on System 6.x through Mac OS 9, covering essentially the entire classic Mac OS lifespan and modern emulation under Mini vMac or Basilisk II.
Origin
Built in Think Pascal 4.0, it stands as a tidy example of late-1990s Australian high-school programming work distributed as Mac shareware.
