## Description

A premium strategic twist on tic-tac-toe. Win three small boards in a row — but your move sends your opponent. Four AI levels and local two-player.

ULTIMATE TIC-TAC-TOE: 9-BOARD

The strategic twist on the classic game everyone knows. Easy to learn. 
Impossible to put down.

THE TWIST

It looks like tic-tac-toe. It plays like chess.

The board isn't a 3x3 grid - it's a 3x3 grid of nine smaller 3x3 grids. 
Every move you make sends your opponent to a specific small board on the 
big grid. Win three small boards in a row to win the game.

Where you tap dictates where they play. Where they play dictates where 
you go. Every move is a decision and a consequence.

WHY IT'S DIFFERENT

Regular tic-tac-toe takes ten seconds to solve. Most kids figure it 
out in an afternoon and never play again.

This is the version mathematicians and strategy players have been 
quietly obsessed with for years. A good move on the small board can be 
a terrible move on the big board, and strong players still disagree 
about the best openings - but the rules take 30 seconds to learn.

THREE WAYS TO PLAY

SOLO - Four AI difficulty levels:

- EASY: makes mistakes and doesn't punish yours. Good first opponent.

- MEDIUM: the sweet spot. Beatable, but never careless.

- HARD: deep search with a positional heuristic. It plans several moves 
  ahead and punishes loose play. Expect to lose your first few games.

- EXPERT: the ceiling. It uses every moment it is given and plans well 
  past the move in front of it. Beating it means you have learned the 
  game.

PASS-AND-PLAY - Two players, one device. Take turns on the same iPhone. 
Great for trains, waiting rooms, and arguing with your roommate.

TUTORIAL - Built-in interactive tutorial that teaches the rules by 
playing them, not by explaining them. Three short steps, three real 
moves, and you've got it.

FEATURES

- Resume any game: close the app, come back tomorrow, your game is 
  exactly where you left it.

- Undo your last move: take back a move against the computer. Practice 
  mode without losing your dignity.

- Hints when you want them: ask for a suggested board and it's 
  highlighted. Hints are counted in your stats, so you know how much 
  help you took.

- Stats per difficulty: wins, losses, draws, win rate, and streaks. 
  See yourself improve.

- Restart, resign, or step away: every game has clear exit options. 
  No menus buried behind menus.

- Light and dark mode: adapts to your system settings.

- Full VoiceOver support: every cell labeled, every state spoken. 
  Designed to be playable without sight.

- Dynamic Type: all text scales with your accessibility settings.

- Haptic feedback: subtle taps on every meaningful action. Toggleable 
  in Settings.

DESIGNED FOR FOCUS

- No ads. Anywhere. Ever.
- No in-app purchases.
- No "energy" mechanic. No timers. No daily login bonuses.
- No account required. No login. No email.
- No internet connection needed. The whole game lives on your device.
- No tracking. No advertising ID. Anonymous usage stats only - and 
  one switch in Settings turns them off.
- No notifications begging you to come back.

It's a game. You play it when you want to. That's it.

ABOUT THE GAME

Also known as "Super Tic-Tac-Toe," "Meta Tic-Tac-Toe," or "Tic-Tac-Toe 
Squared." It's played in math classrooms to introduce game-tree 
complexity, and casually by people who think the original is too short.

This is the polished, single-purpose iOS version.

Win three small boards in a row.
But your move sends your opponent.

That's the whole game. Have fun.
