Dots and Boxes

Draw one edge at a time between dots, complete boxes to score, and chain captures to swing the match.

How to play

Players alternate drawing one horizontal or vertical line between adjacent dots.
When your line completes a box, you claim that box and immediately take another turn.
Avoid giving away long chains that let your opponent claim multiple boxes in sequence.
When all lines are drawn, the player with more claimed boxes wins.
