About this game

Catch The Hen: Lines and Dots borrows the familiar lines-and-dots idea and gives it a farmyard target. Your lines are there to fence in hens. Draw them between the dots so that they close around a hen, and the capture earns you eggs.

The developer presents it as a fresh take on a classic format, mixing something recognisable with something new, and describes the core as logic and strategy. The decision that matters is where each line goes, because an enclosure only counts once it really does surround the bird. Every successful capture adds eggs to your total. The developer also calls it an idle logic farm puzzle, though it does not say what the idle side involves. Hens are the only target mentioned. It runs in a wide landscape frame and can be played with a mouse or on a touchscreen.

How to play

Use the mouse, or your finger on a touchscreen, to connect dots with lines. Build the lines up around a hen until it is completely surrounded. A successful capture earns eggs. Carry on encircling hens to add to your egg count, choosing each line so it helps close a ring around the next bird.

Tips

Enclosure is the whole goal, so plan the ring around a hen before drawing the first line of it. Only a hen that is fully surrounded counts as caught. Look at where the bird sits among the dots and work out which lines would close it in.
