Review a difficult moment
When a decision goes wrong, compare it with the common mistake described below. Start again only when you intend to leave the current round. Keep the objective visible.
Your goal
Win three mini-boards in a row on the large board. The feedback beside the game helps you follow the round. Try to explain the aim in your own words.
Step by step
- Play inside the required mini-board.
- Your selected square sends the opponent to the corresponding mini-board.
- A closed required board permits play in any open board.
- Win local boards, then a large-board line.
Controls
Click or tap a piece and destination; use the turn indicator and legal-move feedback. A careful first action helps you become familiar with the layout. A new-round button replaces the current round.
A useful example
A top-right cell sends the next player to the top-right mini-board. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Take a moment to compare.
Watch out for this
A single local win does not finish the overall game. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round.
