TIC TAC TOE

Tic Tac Toe, also known as Noughts and Crosses or Xs and Os, is a classic two-player game played on a 3×3 grid. The objective of the game is to be the first player to form a horizontal, vertical, or diagonal line of three of their own symbols (either X or O) on the grid.

Here’s how Tic Tac Toe is typically played:

1. Game Setup: The game is played on a 3×3 grid, traditionally drawn on paper or a chalkboard. One player is assigned the X symbol, and the other player is assigned the O symbol.

2. Turn-Based Gameplay: Players take turns placing their symbol (X or O) on an empty cell of the grid. The first player usually starts by placing their symbol in any empty cell.

3. Forming Lines: The objective is to strategically place symbols to form a line of three of their own symbols horizontally, vertically, or diagonally on the grid. Players must also prevent their opponent from forming a winning line.

4. Winning the Game: If a player successfully forms a line of three of their symbols, they win the game. The game ends immediately, and the winning player is declared. If all cells on the grid are filled without any player achieving a winning line, the game ends in a draw or tie.

5. Optional Rule Variations: Some versions of Tic Tac Toe may include additional rules or variations, such as playing on a larger grid, allowing more than two players, or introducing special rules for certain cells or patterns.

Tic Tac Toe is a simple yet engaging game that requires strategic thinking and foresight to outmaneuver the opponent and achieve victory. It is often used as a recreational game for children and adults alike and can be played with pen and paper, on a physical board, or through digital platforms such as mobile apps and online games.
