Dots and Boxes

How to play

  • Take Turns Drawing Lines: Players take turns drawing a single horizontal or vertical line to connect two adjacent dots on the grid.
  • Complete a Box, Claim It! If your line is the fourth side that closes a small 1x1 square (a "box"), you claim that box as your own (it will be marked with your initial or color).
  • Bonus Turn: When you complete a box, you immediately get to take another turn. You can keep taking turns as long as you keep completing boxes!
  • Fill the Grid: Keep playing until all possible lines are drawn and all boxes are claimed.
  • Most Boxes Wins: The player who has claimed the most boxes at the end is the winner!
