Infinity Tris
Read full descriptionHide full description
Infinite Tic-Tac-Toe is a variant of the classic tic-tac-toe game played on a 3x3 grid. The main rules are: Two players take turns placing X's and O's on the grid. The objective is to align three identical symbols horizontally, vertically, or diagonally. The unique feature is that the game doesn't end when the grid is full: When a player makes their 7th move, their first move is erased. This creates a free space that can be used. The game continues indefinitely, with the oldest moves constantly being removed. A player wins by forming a line of three with the moves currently present on the grid. This mechanism adds a strategic element, as players must consider not only the current layout but also how it will change in subsequent turns.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Infinity Tris at none against Shadow Era's 10. Infinity Tris also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 3 months). Shadow Era's advantage is iOS requirement (12.0 vs 17.5). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
