Tic-Tac-Toe

Take turns naming a country, or a footballer, that fits both rules. Get 3 in a row.

Tic-tac-toe, except that you have to earn every square. Each one needs a country or a footballer that fits both its row and its column. Choose the theme in the lobby. It is made for two or more players.

How to play

  1. Each row and column of the 3Ă—3 grid has a rule.
  2. On your turn, pick a free square and name a country, or a footballer, that fits both rules.
  3. A right answer takes the square. A wrong answer, or running out of time, loses your turn.
  4. An answer can only be played once. The first to get 3 in a row wins.

Scoring

The winner gets 1000 points and the others 100 per square. If nobody can get a line, everyone gets 120 per square.

What it works

  • General knowledge You need geography or football facts, depending on the theme.
  • Logical reasoning You block your opponents and keep an eye on squares only you can answer.
  • Creative recall You have to find a name that fits two rules before the turn clock ends.
