Description

From the listing uploaded by “catappult”.

Dots and Boxes or Timbiriche is a classic game that is played with pencil and paper, but now you can play on your Android with different sizes: 2x2, 3x3, 4x4, 5x5 or Cross and different levels of difficulty such as Easy, Intermediate and difficult. • How to play? Sheet containing points that can be connected to each other. Form squares or "boxes" on this sheet connecting the adjacent points with a line, until there are no more points that can be connected. Starting with an area of 3x3, 4x4, 5x5 or 6x6 unconnected dots, on one sheet, each player will have the right to mark a single horizontal or vertical line between two adjacent dots that were not connected. When a player completes a square connect those points, they will earn points and they will be able to play again. Each square that the player closes turns its color and it gains 1 point. The game ends when there are no more points to connect and the winner of the game will be the player with the highest score.
