Remember me?

I was one of your math students at TWAI. I also went and helped you dig holes and pour concrete at the house you were building. I played this once and remembered you showing us that if they know how to, the player that goes second will always win, can you add an option for the player to go after the AI? Also wanted to reach out and say hi

Response from developer

It is actually the person who goes first that always wins unless you make a mistake.

WHYYYYY THORMAN?!?!

Why would you do this to your students. Forget homework this weekend! It’ll take me the whole time to just figure it out! Unamused...
