Dots & Sticks: Dots and Boxes

Dots and Boxes, the classic pen and paper game, rebuilt for your phone. Draw lines between dots, close a box to claim it, and go again. Play dots and boxes online with friends, against the CPU, or 2 player on one phone, and no ad ever interrupts a match.

HOW TO PLAY DOTS AND BOXES
Take turns drawing a line between two neighbouring dots. Close the fourth side of a square and the box is yours, and you play again. One careless line can hand your opponent a whole chain of boxes, so every move counts. When the notebook page is full, the player with the most boxes wins. Easy to learn, surprisingly deep to master.

WAYS TO PLAY

- Pause and resume any game exactly where you left off.

A NOTEBOOK COME TO LIFE
Hand-drawn ink lines, ruled paper, and soft classroom sounds make this squares game feel like the one you doodled in the back of class.

NO ADS MID-MATCH
Your game is never interrupted. Ads only appear after a game ends, and never after your first game. Free to play, no account needed, no in-app purchases.
