Triangles, the game of connecting stars
Stars are scattered across the screen. Take turns drawing a line between two stars, without crossing lines already drawn. The line that closes a triangle with no stars in it earns you a point. Whoever has closed the most triangles wins.
Available on the App Store (iPhone, iPad) and on Google Play (Android).
The idea in one example
Three stars A, B and C. Player 1 draws A–B, Player 2 draws B–C. Only the side A–C is missing: Player 1 draws it, closes triangle ABC and scores 1 point.
A line can also close two triangles at once (2 points), and a triangle that contains a star does not count. The rules explain each case in detail, and the examples show them move by move.
