Classic strategy, four ways

Dots & Boxes Collection

Draw a line. Close a box. Keep the turn. The pencil-and-paper classic in four modes, on a calm, modern board, with a computer opponent that adapts to you.

The classic, rethought.

Four modes

Classic: close the most boxes. Reverse: fewest boxes wins. Takeover: close a box and flip a trapped row of rival boxes. Trapline: every line starts where the last one ended.

A computer that meets you where you are

Easy for learning, Standard that sharpens when you win and eases off when you lose, and Hard for a real test. Risky lines and hints help you see the board.

Play your way
