DOTS is a game for 2 players (human and/or computer). There is a grid of dots on the board. Each player takes turns drawing a line between 2 dots (to make a line, just click between the dots). The lines can be horizontal or vertical (not diagonal) and must be next to each other.

If a player makes a square, the square is marked as theirs and they get another turn. The player with the most squares wins. This is just like the familiar pencil and paper game of the same name. Board size can be set anywhere between 2x2 and 20x20. Control-Click makes all the boxes possible during this move. Use 'Save As' to get the download.

Good rainy day fun!
