Dots

Well this is the first game I have ever posted on my blog here and it will certainly not be the last. I am sure that most people have played dots before. Dots is an extremely fun game where two players pit their eyesight and and wits against each other in order to take more boxes. A player takes a box by filling in the last line needed to complete the box (square). To win you must place lines in order to not let your opponent complete a box but to force them to set you up to complete one. Once you complete a box it becomes your color and is your point. This process continues until the entire board is filled in. Beware, many times a chain reaction of box filling is sparked and the tide of the game will turn with a single wrong move. The link to play Dots is here: http://www.athey-educational.co.uk/games/game5/game5.htm. There is an image of my winning game against the computer. I am the color red. It's not hard if you're careful. Have fun!
