  1. A diagram is drawn as shown. Two persons play this game. One begins by joining two dots. The second person does the same and the first begins again. It continues this way until a box is completed. The box belongs to the person who completes it. The game continues this way until all the dots are used up. The one who gets the most boxes wins the game.
