Give this approach a try

Compare the worked example with your own position. Use the reasoning, not an answer copied from a different board. Use the example to check your reasoning.

Understand the aim

Win three mini-boards in a row on the large board. Read that aim before choosing your first action. Review the board or playing area as it changes.

Follow these playing steps

  1. Play inside the required mini-board.
  2. Your selected square sends the opponent to the corresponding mini-board.
  3. A closed required board permits play in any open board.
  4. Win local boards, then a large-board line.

Making selections and moves

Click or tap a piece and destination; use the turn indicator and legal-move feedback. Read a button’s label before selecting it. Contact us with the game and device if a control does not respond.

Try this example

A top-right cell sends the next player to the top-right mini-board. Apply the same reasoning to the position in your own round. Choose a deliberate next step.

Pay attention to this rule

A single local win does not finish the overall game. Read the feedback to see why an action did not have the expected result. After a move, check what changed. Decide which rule explains the new state before acting again.
