Drag the dots so no two lines cross. When nothing crosses, you have solved it. That is the whole game, and it is wonderfully hard to put down. No timers screaming at you. No notifications begging for attention. Just one clean puzzle, the satisfying click of lines snapping clear, and a result you can share.
