Same-device two players.
Bring this focus to a round
Read one step at a time and try it on the playing area. Match the instruction to the control you use. Make the next step deliberately.
Understand the aim
Win three mini-boards in a row on the large board. Read that aim before choosing your first action. Start with a deliberate move.
How a round unfolds
- Play inside the required mini-board.
- Your selected square sends the opponent to the corresponding mini-board.
- A closed required board permits play in any open board.
- Win local boards, then a large-board line.
Making selections and moves
Click or tap a piece and destination; use the turn indicator and legal-move feedback. On a smaller screen, keep the active part of the board within view. A new-round button replaces the current round.
An example to follow
A top-right cell sends the next player to the top-right mini-board. Compare this with the rule that governs the move. Keep the controls nearby.
Notice this detail
A single local win does not finish the overall game. Check the rule before repeating the action. Choose one rule to keep in mind for this round. Apply it consistently rather than guessing what another version might allow.
