General Information

'Naughts and crosses' or also known as 'tic tac toe' is a simple game with two players. The board consists of a three by three grid and each player is represented by one distinct symbol, a cross or a naught. Players alternate placing their symbols on the grid, and win until 3 of their symbols are placed in a row, column or diagonal (shown with a line through the winning combo). If all the grid positions are filled without a win, the game ends in a draw.

What problems does it solve?

'Naughts and Crosses' was first played using a pencil and paper. To play another round of this game, one must clear the grid of all symbols or redraw a new grid. With this website, players' are able to restart the game instantaneously, place symbols with one click instead of manually inscribing the symbol, and record wins effortlessly and automatically.

What is the purpose of this project?

To allow two players to play 'Naughts and Crosses' with efficiency and ease.
