Rules of the game

General rules of Kropki are in Wikipedia: http://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kropki_%28gra%29 (in Polish) or here in Russian.
The game is similar to Go. However, to capture enemy dots it's enough that you surround them. The group of dots is safe when it is connected with the boundary of the board, then it cannot be surrounded. There are some other differences, but the rules are pretty easy (simpler than in Go), so you may just try!
