Played a few games with my son and we pretty much concluded that if you and your opponent both understand the game, whoever goes first loses. Lol That said it's a really cool twist. Definitely makes you think a little harder. Both players are trying not to get 3 of their own lines in a row, pretty much.

[@sarad2487]

oat's fixes are actually, without a joke, getting more and more practical! like wow, he actually listed the priorities!

[@solsystem1342]

Slight problem, the game is going to devolve into very predictable play. Your goal (essentially) it to just play for as long as possible without forming 3 in a row (because that would allow your opponent to win). So every game will have a setup phase of like four turns of people placing these: |+| +| |+ |+| Then you'd want to individually make something like |+|+ +| |+ +|+| Then the game ends pretty much immediately if someone deviates from this strategy. Or, is forced to place another line. Also, this placement guarantees a win for player 2 after 8 turns unless there's some way to prevent player 2 from playing this strategy (like playing in the places that player needs to go next turn).

[@holesmak]

@@solsystem1342 just tested it myself a bit and while I found other stable play combinations the player 2 pretty much always wins

[@np8139]

@@holesmak I tested it too. It's still more fun than regular Tic Tac Toe, but I had the same results as you. It seems if both players play optimally, Player 2 will always win.

[@svetlananikolaeva8039]

*oats's

[@colgatelampinen2501]

@@solsystem1342 There is no such play, 1st player is forced to take at least one of those 6 six in first two moves since middle one is only square that does not contribute to such strategy and they can't go to same place on their 2nd move as player 2 went on their first move. This leaves square that player 1 can't protect as they already went there.

[@PtylerBeats]

This is an actual improvement. I’m legit going to teach this to my friends and family because it’s so much more superior to the boring game where somehow the cat always wins

[@blakebatpony]

yup, second player still has a garanteed win if they wait a turn and then start placing their lines on player 1 lines from a turn ago, player 1 never has more than 2 valid lines in the game and cant win

[@gswcooper7162]

Tic Tac Two. Job done. :)

[@-qwer-8507]

I solved Tick-Oat-Two (it only took me 10 mins, so its not "balanced"). Second player still always wins. Whenever first player places his mark, check if you can win in 1 turn, and if not place yours mirror. If he makes a T, make a mirror T. If he goes center, go center next turn. The hardest part is to figure out where to place your mark the turn he went center. But you should keep everything mirror. Thats the golden rule of this game

[@randomjunkohyeah1]

I know I’m late to this, but what did you mean by “mirror”?

[@-qwer-8507]

@@randomjunkohyeah1 yeah, its been more than a year :/ I dont really remember, but i guess in this context it means that if first player goes left down tile, then you go left up tile, if he goes middle up tile, you go middle down tile. And obviously because the board is symmetrical, you can mirror him not horizontally but vertically as well (left up tile - right up tile). So another words, to win, second player needs to keep symmetry

[@Blessy.EXEreal]

This is actually an AMAZING remake! There’s one thing wrong with it, the balance still isn’t all too fair; but I’d make it so that you could occupy the other player’s ticks no more than 3 times a game, and when you use up one of those times, you can’t do it for your next turn, and you can never occupy the most recently occupied tick/space. That makes it fair for all, and makes it even fairer!

[@niamhking1385]

Yeah, while it makes it less simple, that's a small sacrifice in order for it to be more fair.
