About

Tic Tac Toe

Features
Read full description

Tic-tac-toe was solved decades ago. This is not tic-tac-toe. **Tic Tac Toe: Gobble** adds one rule that changes everything: a larger cup can cover a smaller one. Every gobble shifts the balance of the board. **HOW IT WORKS** Each player starts with six cups in three sizes — small, medium, and large. On your turn, place a cup on any empty cell, or use a larger cup to gobble an opponent's smaller cup. Once a cup is placed, it stays there forever. Three visible cups in a row wins. **FEATURES** - Pass-and-play local multiplayer — two players, one phone - Single-player mode with adjustable AI difficulty - Tutorial for new players - Colorblind mode: patterns on every cup so color is never the only signal - Cosmetic skins — unlock Dark and Matrix themes via in-app purchase - No ads. No accounts. No internet required. A full match takes 2–5 minutes. The regret lasts longer.
