Description

Morpion Solitaire is a paper and pencil game for one or two players, played on a plus-shaped grid of dots. The origins of the game are probably in northern Europe. References to the game first appeared in French publications in the 1970s.

Rules

Game starts with a cross made from dots.
During each turn, place a dot to form a straight line that is exactly five dots long and then draw a straight line. This line can not overlap a part of an existing line. For every line drown we get a point. The goal is to maximise the score.
