Play Dots and Boxes Online for Free
Dots and Boxes is the classic pencil-and-paper strategy game, free to play online in your browser. Take turns drawing lines between dots; whoever draws the fourth side of a box claims it and moves again, so every line can set up a chain reaction.
How to play
- Pick vs Computer or 2 Players, a board from 3×3 to 7×7 and who moves first.
- Tap or click between two dots (or use the arrow keys and Enter) to draw a line.
- Close a box to claim it and draw again — avoid giving your opponent a box’s third side. Most boxes wins.
Features
- Four computer levels, up to an Expert that plays the long-chain rule and double-deals
- Five board sizes, two-player mode on one device and undo against the computer
- Line preview, last-move highlight and your record and win streak per level
