It seems like there's a bug if you drag your mouse from the board area, off the board, then back on; it will automatically select the first unclaimed tile the cursor hits. I just progressed the game to a 14-36 loss by just waving my mouse randomly without a single click.

It seems to require some fairly fast movement, but I did accidentally trigger it a few times when I was trying to play for real.

I've tested on Firefox 89 and Chrome 91.

Thanks for reporting the bug! I've managed to replicate it on my system too. Will look into a fix.

No problem. It's a fun game that I'm looking forward to playing more, I'll just have to be a bit more deliberate with my mouse movements in the future.

Thanks for posting it!
