Publisher: COMPUTE! · Developer: Douglas Fish

Squares is a strategic multiplayer thinking game where every move leaves a trail that affects future options. You control a snake-like path that “remembers” its movement, creating evolving patterns across the board. The goal is to claim as many squares as possible while avoiding trapping yourself in a dead end. Each action reshapes the layout, making foresight and pattern recognition essential. The experience blends tactical planning with tension, since a single misstep can quickly turn into a trap.
