## What is Four Dots?

Draw a line. Close the box. Take the board.

Four Dots is dots and boxes on graph paper: the pen-and-paper classic, turned into clever puzzles and calm one-on-one matches.

THE RULE IS SIMPLE
Draw a line between two dots. Close the fourth side of a box and it's yours, and you go again. Some lines open the next box too, so every line is a choice: take the chain, or leave the last two and set a trap.

PUZZLES
• Chapters of hand-made boards, one level at a time: Third Side, Chains, The Double-Cross and more to come.
• Every level sets its own goal: capture the boxes, win by a margin, or claim the circled ones. A bot answers every move you make.
• Solve it on your own for three stars. Stars open the next chapter.
• Stuck? A hint shows a line that keeps the level winnable.
• Retries are free until you solve it, and the map keeps your place.

DAILY PUZZLE
A new board every day. Keep your streak going, and keep a shield ready for the day you miss.

VERSUS
• Play one on one against a real person at your level. No bots.
• One board, one clock, most boxes wins. You both put in coins and the winner takes the pot.
• Say something without leaving the game: hi, oops, nice move, gg.
• Climb the leaderboard by beating people and keeping streaks.
• Also: play a friend online with a code, or pass one phone back and forth.

MAKE IT YOURS
Board themes, line colours and backgrounds, paid for with in-game coins you win as you play.

Four Dots has optional in-app purchases and rewarded ads that you choose to watch.
