The Dragon Game

If you have a java enabled browser, get ready to play the Dragon Game! Be prepared for the greatest gameplay of your life!! Well, this is actually a rather simple one player version of the classic pen-and-paper game 'boxes', but should none the less provide a few minutes of amusement. The object of the game is simply to 'capture' more dragons than your opponent (the computer).

How to play the game

You and the computer take alternate moves. To make a move, simply click between the dots - this creates a bar forming one side of a box. When you make a complete box, you will 'capture' a Red Dragon. The computer will try to do the same, and capture White Dragons. When you capture a Dragon, you get another go. Simple as that.

The computer calculates and makes its moves very quickly, so unless you are very observant, you can easily miss where the computer has played. To start a new game, simply click one of the buttons at the bottom. Enjoy!
