The legal bit.

How to play Boxes.

The aim of the game is to create more boxes than your opponent. Each player takes it in turn to draw a line (horizontally or vertically) between two of the points on a grid. If you draw a line that completes a box the box is marked as yours and you score 1 point, you then have another go. If you line does not complete a box then it's your opponents turn to draw a line. This continues until the grid is completed. The winner is the player who has the most boxes.

Lines are drawn by tapping where you would like a line to be. The Palm can play at two levels “Beginner” and “Expert” (the “Expert” level is hard to beat!)

This Palm game allows you to play against a friend, the Palm or for the Palm to play against itself.
