About Dots - Duel
It is a 2 player duel, so every dot you place also has to keep your own dots from being trapped.
Before a match you pick the size of the grid and who you play against. You can play on your own against the computer, with friends, or against other people in multiplayer matches online.

The board is just a grid of lines, and dots go on the points where those lines cross. A capture happens when your dots form a continuous line all the way around enemy dots. Nobody is allowed to pass, so even late in a match you still have to put a dot down somewhere.
Key features
- It is a turn-based board game played on a grid.
- You capture enemy dots by enclosing them with a continuous line.

Tips & tricks
