Tic Tac Toe: Strategic Grid Logic

Challenge a deterministic AI opponent in the classic noughts and crosses. Exercise spatial reasoning and forward-planning in a concise strategic duel.

A 3×3 grid game with clear visual state for each cell (X, O, or empty) and announced game outcomes.

Learning Objectives & Educational Scope

  • Develop spatial reasoning and pattern recognition on a 3×3 grid.
  • Practice forward planning and opponent move anticipation.
  • Understand the game-theoretic concept of optimal play leading to draws.

Instructions & Method

  1. You play as X and always move first.
  2. Click an empty cell to place your mark.
  3. The AI responds as O after your move.
  4. First player to align three marks horizontally, vertically, or diagonally wins.
  5. If all nine cells are filled with no winner, the game is a draw.
