This is my favorite game of the jam. Reminds me of when I use to spend time playing dots and boxes with my granddad (or as he called it, Squares). A lot of strategy and it's easy to get trapped by a cunning opponent. This very much feels like dots and boxes turned into a game that you could only play digitally. Great work! My only recommendations is for there to be a menu with an "instructions" screen rather than me scrolling to the description (dw though, this is a common thing with itch.io games) and also, though I know it's entirely your choice how you made this, in the future I definitely would like to see a version with the gameplay taking up more space on the screen and being given the ability to change the color schemes. Those are just preferences though not critiques by any means.
