How To Play “Dots”?
• First make a Dots board in a blank piece paper by drawing evenly spaced dots in a grid pattern. The board can be large or as small as you like or based upon the time you have to play, but make sure there are same numbers of dots across as there are up and down.
• The first player draws a single line between two adjacent dots anywhere in the dots board. The line should be vertical or horizontal and can only connect two dots together. The next player does the same.
• The object of the game is to create complete box shapes, comprised of four lines connected between four dots. When a player completes a square, he marks his initials neatly inside the square. Once a player has completed a box and initialed it, he gets a second turn.
• Continue drawing lines until there are no more moves left. Count the number of boxes each player has initialed.
• The winner is the player who has the most number of boxes at the end of the game.
Tips & Warnings
The larger you make the Dots board, the longer the game will last, so customize the size of your playing board to the amount of time you have to play.
