How it works

Take a piece of paper. Draw lots of red dots on it – crisscross, not too close and not too far apart. You can decide how many. Maybe 20? Make sure you leave space to connect them later.
Grab a second person. Each gets their own pen in a different color. For example, you can have pink, and your opponent blue. Now you take turns. You can decide who starts with rock-paper-scissors. And then? Let’s go!
You may only draw one line at a time. From one dot to another. Important: The line must not already exist! So you can't draw lines twice and you can't cross lines that are already connected. The goal is to connect triangles.
As soon as you form a complete triangle with your line, it belongs to you! Now you can draw a small star inside that triangle.
The game ends when no more lines can be drawn or all dots are connected. Then you count your stars. Whoever has the most wins!
And if you want even more games where you can think, laugh, and win, there are many more ideas waiting for you in the app.
