#### The Goal

The main objective is simple: **fill more squares on your grid than your opponent** by the time the game ends. [Jump down to the game](#gridlock-game-container)

#### On Your Turn

1. **Roll the Dice:** Click the "Roll Dice" button to get two numbers.
2. **Form a Rectangle:** These two numbers create a rectangle for you to place (for example, a roll of 2 and 6 makes a 2x6 rectangle). You can click "Rotate" to change it to a 6x2 rectangle.
3. **Place Your Piece:** Click anywhere on an empty space on either grid to place your rectangle.

#### The "Sneaky" Twist

You don't always have to play on your own board! You can choose to place your rectangle on your **opponent's grid** to block them or fill an awkward space.

#### The Forced Move

If you roll a rectangle that **will not fit anywhere on your own grid**, you don't get a choice. You **must** place it on your opponent's grid if a valid spot exists there. Your own grid will be temporarily disabled.

#### Losing a Turn

What if your rectangle doesn't fit on your grid OR your opponent's grid? In that case, you have no possible moves and you **lose your turn**. Play will automatically pass to your opponent.

#### How to Win

The game ends when **both players lose their turn one after the other**. When this happens, the game is over! The player who has filled in the most squares on their own grid is declared the winner.
