Rules

At each move a player crosses one, two, or three adjacent dots that haven't been crossed previously. A player who gets a position with only one non-crossed dot looses. The implementation allows to modify rules in the following ways:

last wins: the game continues until no available dots remain and a player who has the last move wins. it looks like this modification requires a simpler strategy then the standard rule.

diagonal neighbours: according to standard rues diagonal dots are always adjacent, however you can modify the rules so that diagonal dots are never connected, or connected in case the connection line does not cross anther connection line.
