Squarelize

What Is Squarelize?

Squarelize is a mystifying, two-person abstract strategy game that tries to revive an old pencil-and-paper game, La Pipopipette, into the digital format. The original game, published back in the 19th century by the French mathematician Édouard Lucas, has been called by many names, such as Dots and Boxes, The Game of Dots, and Dot to Dot Grid. In Squarelize, the players play on a predetermined chakana (or Inca Cross) grid of different sizes, thus injecting some more life into the traditional game. It needs skill, wit, and a little competitive fun that will get you hooked on it for more.

How to Play

Squarelize aims to be the first player to complete four squares by connecting the dots. Each player takes turns drawing a line between two adjacent dots on the grid. When a player has completed a box, that player scores a point and places his or her mark (usually an 'X' or 'O') in the middle of the box. The game goes on until all the boxes have been scored and whoever scores the most boxes wins.

Use the left mouse click to select the sides of the squares to draw. A little strategy will go a long way, so use it wisely to impede your opponent and pave the way for yourself.

Tips and Tricks

1. Control the Center: Try to control the center squares on the grid, as they can stand at the heart of multiple possible lines and squares.
2. Block Early: Don't feel bad about blocking your opponent's potential squares early on. It is better to deny them the points than to let it happen.
3. Look Ahead: Always think a couple of moves ahead. Try to anticipate where your opponent might go next, so you can plan your own moves around that.
4. Balance Attacking and Defending: While you must try to score, you have equally got to block your own squares from falling to your opponent.

History

Squares can be traced back to 19th-century versions of La Pipopipette.

Squarelize thus brings this timeless game into modern times, offering a contemporary and engaging experience on a chakana grid.
