Dots & Boxes: Dice Quotas

A Dots & Boxes variant where a die roll dictates exactly how many edges you must draw.

BOARD SIZES 3×3 – 6×6
SOURCE 569 LINES

The classic game with one rule change that transforms it: each turn you roll a die and must draw exactly that many edges, clamped to what remains. Suddenly the chain strategy inverts.
