This challenging game makes you really think and plan, 3 times harder than regular tic tac toe. Computer plays at two different levels and will also give you hints if you are unsure of your best move / counter move. Rotate the playing grid to get better perspective of the game board. In two play mode, you play against a friend on the same device, passing the device back and forth (great for playing on car or plane rides.
