## Description

Ink Dots<br><br>Born in the 1970s USSR as a paper take on Go: a squared page, two colours of ink, a duel from the school desk.<br><br>Take turns placing dots and surround your rival&#39;s dots with an unbroken chain of your own — captured dots leave the board and count as points. Whoever captures more wins.<br><br>Simple rules, deep play, no luck — a simplified Go on a notebook grid.<br><br>It goes by many names — Точки in Russia, Kropki in Poland, Židi in the Czech lands.<br><br>EVERYTHING IS HAND-DRAWN<br>No flashy menus or loud colours — just paper, blue ink, and wobbly pen lines. Dots pop, captures ripple, and a gentle sound marks every move. A board that feels made by hand.<br><br>WAYS TO PLAY<br>• Solo vs AI — three honest difficulty levels, from a relaxed game to a real challenge.<br>• Duel on one phone — pass and play, taking turns on a single device.<br>• Duel on two phones — pair instantly by scanning a QR code and play over a direct Bluetooth / Wi-Fi connection. No game server, no account.<br>• Three board sizes, from a quick small grid to a long strategic battle.<br><br>CALM BY DESIGN<br>• No ads. Ever.<br>• No accounts, no sign-in.<br>• Games play offline — there are no game servers; two-phone matches connect directly.<br>• Only anonymous, aggregated analytics and crash reports are sent, to help us improve.<br>• Suitable for all ages.<br><br>A nostalgic school-and-university classic, drawn the way it always should have been. Grab a friend, pick a colour, and start capturing.<br><br>Crafted with care by KirsuLab.
