## What is Tic?

Tic-Tac-Tarantula is a two player game that is similar to the tic-tac-toe, but with animated tarantulas.  The game can be played in the tradition two-dimensional mode or for an added challenge you can play the game in three dimensions.  The object of the game is to get three tarantulas in a straight line.  The line can be horizontal, vertical or diagonal.  Sound easy?  Well, maybe not since when two sharp players match wits the game will usually end in a tie.

PLAYS: During a turn a player slides one of their tarantulas to an unused space on the tic-tac-toe board.  Game strategies vary but usually it is necessary to block the opponent while at the same time trying to get three in a row.

WINNING:  A player wins the game by making a 'tarantula chain' of three spiders.  The chain can be in any direction, vertical, horizontal or diagonal.
