About

Pip XO

Read full description

Small game. Big smiles. Pip XO is a friendly little tic-tac-toe game for a quiet moment, a quick challenge, or a turn with someone beside you. MEET YOUR LITTLE CREW Choose from ten original buddies: Pip, Puddle, Clover, Biscuit, Pebble, Sunny, Fizz, Moss, Wisp, and Twinkle. Pick the characters for both sides, then fill the board with your little buddies. Connect three of your pieces to win. Numbered badges keep both sides clear, even with matching characters. Everyone is available from the start, and every buddy follows the same rules. FIND YOUR CHALLENGE Start with Easy, try Curious, plan ahead with Clever, or aim for a draw against Perfect. The four levels build from simple moves to a computer that cannot be beaten. Player 1 always goes first. PLAY TOGETHER Switch to Two players and take turns on the same iPhone or iPad. No account or internet connection is needed to play. KEEP IT QUIET Game voice starts off. Turn on optional English result announcements with the speaker button whenever you like. There is no music. A BIG LITTLE CELEBRATION Enjoy a full-screen victory with your winning buddy, a big cheer, and a short burst of colorful confetti and fireworks. View board keeps your finished game, or Play again starts a fresh round. Reduce Motion uses still decorations. A FRESH START Choose your characters and level in one place, then tap Apply. An unfinished round asks before it is cleared. After a result, Play again starts a new round straight away. Free to play. No ads. No purchases. No tracking. English interface, help, and support. Online support is available separately through the support form.
