About this game

dotball is a turn-based strategy board game for one or two players. Face the AI, pass the phone to a friend, play online, or solve today's puzzle.

The rules take one match to learn. Draw a line between two dots. Bounce off any line already drawn and keep going. Force the ball into your opponent's goal, or trap them with nowhere left to move. That's the whole game. No luck, no dice, no clutter.
