1. Put some dots on a board.

2. Now take turns joining a dot to a dot with a path. No two paths can cross. Note that no dot can have more than three path connections to it. A dot can be joined to itself, but this counts as two path connections to that dot.

3. After a new path is drawn, put a new dot on that path.

4.When one player can no longer make a move, the other player wins.

Here is an example of game play.

(Dots were colored in when they were no longer useable.)

More Variations:

1) Play where each move must cross a glued side.

2) Play with `walls' on the board. A wall is a line which cannot be
