Dots and Boxes

Welcome to the captivating game that many people love Dots and Boxes. Join the game with friends or family to enjoy moments of fun and entertainment.

The game is created using two familiar learning tools, a pencil and paper. It starts by drawing a grid of dots on the paper. The size of the grid can vary depending on the level of difficulty or the number of players participating. A standard 5x5 or 6x6 grid is a good starting point. Place a dot at each intersection of the grid lines. Note that the dots are evenly spaced horizontally and vertically. But nowadays, with technological advancements, you don't need to use a pencil and paper to play the game. You can play the game on readily available web browsers, which we introduce here.

The objective of Dots and Boxes is to create more boxes than your opponent by connecting the dots on a grid. The game is typically played on a grid of dots, where each player takes turns connecting two adjacent dots either horizontally or vertically. When a player completes a square by drawing the fourth side, they earn a point and get an extra turn. The person who draws the most boxes will win.
