Play LineWars II Online
You push colored lines across a grid, trying to outmaneuver a sneaky AI—simple rules, brutal strategy, and way more tense than lines and dots have any right to be.
Game Overview
LineWars II is one of those weirdly brilliant MS-DOS games that shouldn’t work but totally does. You’re moving colored lines across a grid, trying to box in your opponent—sounds boring, right? Except suddenly you’re hunched over the keyboard, muttering "just one more turn" as your carefully planned trap falls apart because the AI outsmarted you again.
It’s like chess if chess were played by hyperactive geometry teachers. The rules are simple (expand, surround, repeat), but the strategy gets deep fast. I lost my first five matches before realizing brute force doesn’t work—you’ve gotta think three moves ahead. And yeah, the graphics are literally just lines and dots, but somehow that makes every comeback victory even sweeter.
If you miss the days when games didn’t hold your hand and a 16-color palette was cutting-edge, this’ll scratch that itch. Just don’t blame me when you accidentally waste an afternoon on it.
Each game uses different controls, most DOS games use the keyboard arrows. Some will use the mouse , "Alt" ,"Enter" and "Space bar".
