Thicket (2014)

THICKET is a two-player abstract strategy game played on a 6x6 grid of dots. Players take turns drawing orthogonal lines between adjacent dots to enclose areas. When a player completes an enclosure, they claim that area and take another turn. No dot can have more than three lines connected to it, and lines cannot be drawn inside claimed areas. The game ends when no more areas can be claimed. The player who has enclosed the most square spaces wins. THICKET combines elements of territory control and tactical line placement, with the three-connection limit adding a unique strategic element to the gameplay.
