Checkers is a board game that also had some appearances in VeggieTales.
Appearances
- The Wonderful World of Auto-Tainment! - While not seen in the episode itself, Jimmy and Jerry Gourd are briefly seen playing it in the Chapters menu before falling into a trap door.
- The Ballad of Little Joe - The game is offered by the window in the Rootin' Tootin' Pizza Place, which Little Joe is in charge of keeping the players from cheating.
- Sheerluck Holmes and the Golden Ruler - Don and Pancho like playing it as it was one of their favorite pastimes when they're not working.
- LarryBoy and the Bad Apple - In the film Alfred watches, it is a major selling point of Apply's Fun House, and settlers are seen playing it inside.
- Moe and the Big Exit - Like Little Joe, a game of checkers is seen being played in one scene. However, the game is offered outside rather than inside.
- Bob and Larry Gettin' Angry - Bob and Petunia played checkers until Larry accidentally ruined their game.
- The Lost Tooth - Larry laments that he couldn't play checkers without his tooth.
Fun Facts
- One of the major issues that the crew pointed out on the commentary tracks is how the player pieces aren't in the respective squares. Brian Roberts later fixed this problem during production on Moe by giving the animators a gaming map on how the pieces should move.
