Paper Boxes (Squares and Triangles boards) is a version of
the pen and paper game. Each side takes a turn filling in
a line between two points. When each Box is outlined,
the enclosed area will be counted to that player. This game was first invented by Edouard Lucas in 1889.
Two versions of each board variant are present. One where a player
is allowed to 'continue' with their turn after having completed a
square. The other version is for each player having 1-turn only,
at a time. The player with the most boxes at a game's completion wins.
Notes: Another Zillions version of the (pen and paper) Squares format
is Walls.zrf by Karl Scherer in May, 2000. Line graphics, here, are adapted from the LightsOutMaze.zrf by Matthew Baker
in 2000, (of which I later assisted with an updated random set-up.)
The Scoring graphics and coding, are copied upon a series of zrf's
such as; Card-Pairs from Nov. 2003, Card-Accordion from Dec. 2010,
Captour from Nov. 2004, and Knights' Field of 2007/08.
The Menu Screen is built upon MancalaIV.zrf, from Jul. 2004. The text
font used is Montreal SF at 12pt bold, 14pt (header) and 10pt. A Menu Return variant is also included at the bottom of each specific zrf. |
