Game Rules

To choose who goes first, a coin is flipped or Rock-Paper-Scissors is played, although, in Dots and Boxes, Player 1 always starts first.

Players take turns connecting two unjoined dots that are horizontally or vertically adjacent. A player wins one point for completing the fourth side of a 1x1 box and must take another turn.

The game is over when all lines have been drawn and all boxes have been claimed. The player with the most points is the winner. The game is a draw if more than one player has the same high score.
