Dots and Boxes — the pencil-and-paper classic, now on your phone. Draw a line between two neighbouring dots. Close the fourth side of a box and it's yours — score a point and go again. Whoever closes the most boxes wins. Simple to learn, hard to master once chains come into play. FEATURES • Board sizes: 3×3, 4×4, 5×5, 6×6, 10×10, or set a custom size from 3×3 up to 20×20 • Play modes: 2 players on one device, or challenge the CPU on Easy, Normal, or Hard • 6 themes: Chalk, Meadow, Coral, Slate, Neon, and Black, including dark palettes • Stats: games played, games won, boxes closed, longest chain, and your best score per board size • Undo moves, resume your game after closing the app, and a built-in rules screen HOW TO PLAY Two players take turns drawing one line between two neighbouring dots. Draw the fourth side of a box and it's yours — it takes your colour, scores a point, and you get another turn. Chain enough boxes together and one turn can sweep half the board. The trap: never draw the third side of a box, or you hand it straight to your opponent. Late game, whoever is forced to open a long chain usually loses it — when nothing safe is left, open the shortest one. No ads getting in the way, no accounts, no clutter. Just the game.
