Diagonal Two Squared is a game similar to Connect Four but essentially with the board rotated at 45 degrees. This allows for play on two "sides" from the start instead of the original game, on which you only play only along the bottom.

In Tick Tack Toe: VS, play against your friends in local multiplayer and against CPU opponents! The game features a fun hand-drawn art style and cool sounds, with gameplay equivalent to the traditional tic tac toe that all know and love. Tick Tack Toe: VS features three different difficulty levels of CPU: -Tick: about as smart as an insect, which still turns out to be pretty smart in this game -Tack: sharp as a tack, but still not as mighty as a sword -Toe: will beat you and take your toes as a bonus prize Tick Tack Toe: VS also comes with a free iMessage sticker pack that allows users to also play a game of tic tac toe in an iMessage conversation. Simply drag a game board sticker onto a message in a messages thread (or send the sticker image itself), then take turns placing X and O stickers onto the board with a friend. The sticker pack also comes with the tick, tack, and toe icons from the game. All of the stickers are white in coloration with a black border, for maximum visibility whether the user is in light mode or dark mode. I hope you enjoy the game!
