Sprouts Game 4+

Finally, an iOS version of the popular game Sprouts!

--

Sprouts is a pen-and-paper strategy game invented by John H. Conway and Michael S. Paterson in 1967 at the University of Cambridge.

The rules of the game are simple:

The players place 2 to 9 dots, called Spots, on the game field and then take turns connecting any two nodes by drawing from one to the other, without crossing previous lines. Each Spot can make a total of 3 connections, with the remaining number of connections for each node written on them. After drawing a line, the Player places one more Spot somewhere on the line.

The game ends when either (1) there is only one alive node, in which case the game ends automatically or (2) there are multiple alive nodes but can't be connected without crossing previous lines, in which case the game is forfeited by tapping the NO VALID MOVE button.
