Something to practise
Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal. Make the next step deliberately.
Your goal
Win three mini-boards in a row on the large board. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. The example below illustrates a decision.
How to proceed
- 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.
Keyboard and screen controls
Click or tap a piece and destination; use the turn indicator and legal-move feedback. Keep the playing area visible while using these controls. Return to the rules if the result is unexpected.
One way to understand the rules
A top-right cell sends the next player to the top-right mini-board. Apply the same reasoning to the position in your own round. Keep the controls nearby.
A mistake to avoid
A single local win does not finish the overall game. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. After a move, check what changed. Decide which rule explains the new state before acting again.
