Dots & Boxes: game rules and control |
|||||||||||
| You play the game with the mouse. The goal is to capture more squares than your opponent - the computer. Making a move each player paints an edge of a cell in the grid - you do it by clicking the desired edge. The edges you click are painted with red and the moves made by the computer are marked with yellow. | |||||||||||
 If 3 of the 4 edges of any cell are already painted, |
 painting the 4th edge makes this cell yours - so you "capture" it. |
||||||||||
|
The captured cell is filled with the owner's color and that player gets an extra move.
|
|||||||||||
| The game is over when all edges are painted. The winner is the player who owns more squares. | |||||||||||
| By default the size of the game field is 3x3 but you can change it through the Options menu. | |||||||||||
| To start a new game, point to Game > New in the menu. | |||||||||||
