Our Story
BathHeat was born from a simple idea: classic board games should be accessible to everyone, everywhere, at any time. We grew up playing checkers around kitchen tables and in park pavilions, and we wanted to capture that same joy in a digital format that anyone can enjoy.
Our small team of game enthusiasts and web developers came together in 2025 with a shared passion for strategic board games and a commitment to building something genuinely fun without ads, subscriptions, or hidden costs.
About Checkers Master
Checkers Master is our flagship game — a faithful digital recreation of the beloved board game that has been played for over 5,000 years. From ancient Egyptian "Alquerque" boards to the standardized 8×8 board we know today, checkers has stood the test of time as one of humanity's greatest strategy games.
Our version brings the classic experience to your browser with smooth drag-and-drop controls, responsive design that works on every device, and a challenging AI opponent that adapts to keep you engaged whether you're a beginner or a seasoned player.
Our Mission
To make classic board games available to everyone for free, with no barriers to entry — no downloads, no accounts, just instant fun.
Our Philosophy
Games should be accessible, inclusive, and fun. We believe in building quality experiences that respect your time and your privacy.
Our Reach
Players from around the world enjoy Checkers Master daily, bringing together a global community united by their love of strategy.

BathHeat is run by a small team of passionate developers and game designers who share a love for classic strategy games. We spend our days (and quite a few evenings) perfecting the gameplay experience, testing new features, and — of course — playing lots of checkers.
We're always looking for ways to improve. If you have ideas, feedback, or just want to say hello, don't hesitate to reach out!
