In Chess Titans,

Shouldnt the game be counted as a win when your opponent
cant move any piece rather then making the game a draw?

Ofc, im not that familiar with the actual chess rules but it would
seem to me that if you manage to box in your opponent so he
cant move it should be counted as a win.

I fully agree with your comment! By the way, if boxing in your enemy is a
draw, what must one do to win in the game?

Yes i know i actually came here to ask this question. I captured the king all aound so it couldnt make a move and it said it was a draw. I dont know all chess rules so please can someone explain, if that is a draw then how do I win the game??

If in the position you are talking about, the King is NOT in check(under attack) and has no legal move then the game is a Stalemate(Draw). To win you must have the king in check with no way for him to get out of check.
This is a good website to learn the basics Chess is Fun( http://www.princeton.edu/~jedwards/cif/intro.html ).

I'm finding myself in the position that I'm not in check, but still seem to
lose the game, rather than draw???
