Surrounded

"The aim is to surround your opponent before they surround you.

On each turn, you must either move your counter to a neighbouring square or place one of your 4 blocks in any unoccupied square.

You must place your first block by move 4. Once a block is placed, it cannot be moved.

You win if your opponent can't move their counter or place a block on their turn.

Be warned!

- The game is frustrating when you block your opponent using your counter, then have to move it because you\u2019ve run out of blocks.

- It's even more frustrating when you're trapped by your own blocks.

- And you may tear your hair out when you\u2019re both trapped, but you run out of blocks the turn before the computer.

Enjoy!"
