Focus on one rule
Choose one rule to keep in mind for this round. Apply it consistently rather than guessing what another version might allow. Keep the objective visible.
Your goal
Win three mini-boards in a row on the large board. Keep that objective in view throughout the round. Start with a deliberate move.
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. Keep the playing area visible while using these controls. Check any mode label before starting.
A useful example
A top-right cell sends the next player to the top-right mini-board. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Take a moment to compare.
Watch out for this
A single local win does not finish the overall game. A different version of the game may use a different rule. Compare the worked example with your own position. Use the reasoning, not an answer copied from a different board.
