The Squares Game

How to Play

Each player takes it in turn to link two dots on the game grid, by clicking in the appropriate connecting, grey line.

The aim of the game is for a player to enclose as many squares as possible while preventing the other player from doing the same thing!

This is where tactics come in to play....initially neither player will "capture" many squares, but as the game goes on, and most dots are linked together, you need a lot of skill!

The winning player is the one who captures more than half the available squares. A message will be displayed when this happens - but you may carry on playing until all the squares have been captured, if you want.
