Dots and Boxes: Boxly

New: the Daily Puzzle. One puzzle a day, the same position for everyone. No server, no account. And as always: zero ads, forever.

Dots and Boxes, exactly the way you played it in school. With zero ads, ever. Four opponents that play fair: beginner actually lets you learn, hard wins by strategy, not by magic. When you lose, you'll know why. 100% offline. No account, no subscription, no waiting for opponents that never show up.

HOW IT WORKS Draw a line between two dots. Close the fourth side of a box and it's yours, and you go again. Most boxes wins. A grid of dots, just like in your old exercise book.

PLAY AGAINST REAL STRATEGY • Beginner: makes mistakes. Perfect for your first games. • Easy: plays solid moves, but doesn't plan ahead. • Medium: knows chains. A fair fight for everyday play. • Hard: plays perfectly, double-cross included. And when it wins, you see why: every sacrifice is marked right on the board. Want to know what the expert would do? The Tactics Coach shows the best move and explains it in one sentence.

ONE PUZZLE A DAY The Daily Puzzle: one puzzle per day, the same position for everyone. No server, no account. Generated right on your device. Keep your streak alive, and revisit past days in the archive.

TWO PLAYERS, ONE OR TWO DEVICES Pass-and-play on iPhone and iPad: device in the middle, and go. Or play on two devices side by side, connected directly, no internet required. Both need to be in the same room. There is no online play against strangers, and we won't pretend there is.

PAY ONCE, HAVE EVERYTHING The full game is a single purchase of $1.99. That's it. Forever.

WHAT THIS APP DELIBERATELY DOESN'T HAVE No ads. No subscription. No account. No tracking. No energy system. No daily quests. No online matchmaking, and no waiting for an opponent who never arrives. Just the game.
