About this game

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.
Classic Dots and Boxes. Play a friend or CPU. Chain strategy, pure and free.
