Nine chips each
Every player gets 3 large, 3 medium and 3 small chips. Once a chip is placed, it stays on the board.
Tic-tac-toe,
but taller.
Tic-Tac-Tower adds chip sizes and stacking to the classic game. Bigger chips capture smaller ones, so a cell you own is never fully safe and no lead is final.
Four rules, plenty of strategy
→
Bigger captures smaller
Place a chip on an empty cell, or on top of an opponent's chip that is smaller than yours.
No equal sizes, no self-stacking
You can't cover your own chips, and you can't cover an opponent's chip of the same size or bigger.
Three on top wins
Get three of your chips in a row, column or diagonal. Only the top chip in each cell counts.
How to play
- Enter both names and flip the coin. The coin decides who plays X, and X goes first. After each round, the other player starts.
- Pick a chip size in your tray. The glowing tray belongs to the player whose turn it is. On a keyboard, press 1 2 3 for small, medium and large.
- Tap a glowing cell to place it. Only cells where that chip is allowed glow. Small dots under a chip show what it has captured.
- Win, or run out of moves. The round ends when someone gets three in a row. If the next player has no legal move, the round is a draw.
A few tips
- Open with small chips and save the large ones for captures later.
- Large chips can never be captured, so the center is a strong place for one.
- Keep an eye on your opponent's tray. Once their large chips are gone, your mediums are safe.
