About the Game

History of OXO

The origins of OXO can be traced back to ancient civilizations, where people would play similar games using pebbles or rocks. The modern version of the game emerged in the 19th century, and was first played on a chalkboard or piece of paper.

Rules of Play

The game is played on a 3x3 grid, and each player takes turns placing their symbol (either X or 0) in an empty square. The first player to get three of their symbols in a row (horizontally, vertically, or diagonally) wins the game. If all squares are filled and no player has won, the game is a tie.

Tips and Strategies for Winning

• Start in the middle square to increase your chances of winning.
• Block your opponent's potential winning moves.
• Plan ahead and try to create multiple opportunities to win.
