Practice with a purpose

Keep the stated aim separate from side details such as animation or appearance. Progress is measured by the game’s own completion or scoring rules. Notice the feedback after each input.

The objective of a round

Win three mini-boards in a row on the large board. Keep that objective in view throughout the round. Return to the instructions when a step is unclear.

The steps to play

  1. Play inside the required mini-board.
  2. Your selected square sends the opponent to the corresponding mini-board.
  3. A closed required board permits play in any open board.
  4. Win local boards, then a large-board line.

How to interact with the game

Click or tap a piece and destination; use the turn indicator and legal-move feedback. A careful first action helps you become familiar with the layout. Make sure you are interacting with the game rather than the surrounding page.

Try this example

A top-right cell sends the next player to the top-right mini-board. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Verify the rule before continuing.

Where a round can go wrong

A single local win does not finish the overall game. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal.
