Cage is a finite, omnidirectional Checkers variant. The 10x10 board is initially set up as shown in the figure. The checkers jump orthogonally in any direction, and the direction can change during multiple jumps. Cage is a game of annihilation. The game must end, and when it does, there will remain at most one color of checkers on the board, guaranteed. One unique feature of Cage is that you can jump off the board, removing both the capturing and captured checkers.
