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!
