If anyone else sees this, please open your JavaScript console, cut and paste the game log there, and send it to me. Remember, if you make a triangle, you must move again; it is not optional. The computer's responses are shown in red. The only possible pass is the human (hero) at the very start of the game; the computer should never pass. To start another game just click on the board at the end of the previous game. -tom On Tue, Jun 18, 2019 at 5:43 PM Allan Wechsler <acwacw@gmail.com> wrote:
Tom, the game as set up isn't fair -- the computer can pass in the middle of the game, and the human can't. I suspect this is a bug.

Dots and Boxes is a nice simple children's game, right? Elwyn Berlekamp (the "wyn" in Winning Ways) showed us the surprising depths to this game.
Here's a tiny variant on a tiny board; just nine triangles. You get to choose to go first or second. Can you beat it?
I'm finding it surprisingly difficult.

This should work on your mobile phone too.
