Tic-Tac-Tarantula is a two player game that is similar to the tic-tac-toe, but with animated tarantulas. The game can be played in the tradition two-dimensional mode or for an added challenge you can play the game in three dimensions. The object of the game is to get three tarantulas in a straight line. The line can be horizontal, vertical or diagonal. Sound easy? Well, maybe not since when two sharp players match wits the game will usually end in a tie. PLAYS: During a turn a player slides one of their tarantulas to an unused space on the tic-tac-toe board. Game strategies vary but usually it is necessary to block the opponent while at the same time trying to get three in a row. WINNING: A player wins the game by making a 'tarantula chain' of three spiders. The chain can be in any direction, vertical, horizontal or diagonal.

Tic's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 56%) and in-app purchases (none vs 1). On device support there is nothing between them.
