Fences
2–2 players · 60 min · 5+
Fences is a pencil and paper game for two players. First, draw a square. Draw hash marks on the perimeter midway between the corners. The 4 corners and 4 hash marks comprise 8 anchors. Continue drawing hash marks midway between the existing anchors until there are 32 anchors, or take it a step further for a total of 64 anchors.
The two players take turns drawing a line between two anchors. Each anchor can be connected to only once. Lines cannot cross each other. The last player to draw a line wins. Draws cannot occur in Fences.
