Play Dots & Boxes Online Free

About This Game

The pen-and-paper classic leaps onto screens with its sneaky strategy intact. Take turns drawing lines between neighboring dots, and every box completed with the fourth side earns a point plus a bonus move. The catch: greedy early grabs hand your opponent long chains of free boxes, so real victories demand patience and foresight. Face clever computer rivals or pass the device for head-to-head family duels. Learnable in one minute yet deep enough to study for years, it is a perfect quick duel for siblings, friends, and classrooms.

How to Play

Tap the space between two neighboring dots to draw a line, alternating turns with your opponent. Completing the fourth side of a box claims it for you and grants another turn immediately. Avoid opening long chains too early, since a sharp opponent will capture them all. When every line is drawn, the player with the most completed boxes wins.
