Ink Dots: Territory Capture

About

Capture territory on a paper grid — surround your rival's dots to win.

Ink Dots Born in the 1970s USSR as a paper take on Go: a squared page, two colours of ink, a duel from the school desk. Take turns placing dots and surround your rival's dots with an unbroken chain of your own — captured dots leave the board and count as points. Whoever captures more wins. Simple rules, deep play, no luck — a simplified Go on a notebook grid. It goes by many names — Точки in Russia, Kropki in Poland, Židi in the Czech lands. EVERYTHING IS HAND-DRAWN No flashy menus or loud colours — just paper, blue ink, and wobbly pen lines. Dots pop, captures ripple, and a gentle sound marks every move. A board that feels made by hand. WAYS TO PLAY • Solo vs AI — three honest difficulty levels, from a relaxed game to a real challenge. • Duel on one phone — pass and play, taking turns on a single device. • Duel on two phones — pair instantly by scanning a QR code and play over a direct Bluetooth / Wi-Fi connection. No game server, no account. • Three board sizes, from a quick small grid to a long strategic battle. CALM BY DESIGN • No ads. Ever. • No accounts, no sign-in. • Games play offline — there are no game servers; two-phone matches connect directly. • Only anonymous, aggregated analytics and crash reports are sent, to help us improve. • Suitable for all ages. A nostalgic school-and-university classic, drawn the way it always should have been. Grab a friend, pick a colour, and start capturing. Crafted with care by KirsuLab.
