Publisher's Synopsis
requires 2 people A pen and paper game play Draw a grid of two parallel vertical lines intersecting with two parallel horizontal lines to form 9 boxes . One player (designated X) makes the first move by drawing that letter in any one of the 9 boxes; O follows by making the second move. The game can have only three outcomes: either player may emerge victorious by linking three of their letters horizontally, vertically, or diagonally, or else the game ends in a "cat's game" in which neither player connects three in a row. It's best to rotate who is X and who is O so that the same player does not start each game.
