An introduction to playing Ultimate Tic-Tac-Toe
Start Ultimate Tic-Tac-Toe by looking at the playing area and its controls. Win three mini-boards in a row on the large board. Keep the game area visible while you use its controls. Treat the first round as a chance to learn the controls. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions.
Same-device two players.

Using the playing area
Click or tap a piece and destination; use the turn indicator and legal-move feedback. On a smaller screen, keep the active part of the board within view. Make sure you are interacting with the game rather than the surrounding page.
See how the rules apply
A top-right cell sends the next player to the top-right mini-board. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Keep the game’s format in mind.
One detail worth checking
A single local win does not finish the overall game. A different version of the game may use a different rule. Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal.
