About Dots n Lines
A grid of dots and a simple rule: click between two of them to draw a line. Dots n Lines is a quick strategy game that anyone can pick up, with enough depth to keep you thinking about every move.
A computer opponent is built in, so you can play on your own at any time. The tag list also points to two-player action. Rounds are short, and the mouse or touch controls are as easy as they come, which makes it a good fit for a phone in portrait orientation. It is family-friendly, and a classic style of pen-and-paper contest.
