How to play Ultimate Tic-Tac-Toe

The board is a 3×3 grid of mini tic-tac-toe boards. Where you play within a mini board sends the computer to the matching board next. Win a mini board by getting three in a row there; win the game by winning three mini boards in a line. If you’re sent to a finished board, you may play in any open one.

Why can’t I play just anywhere?

Your opponent’s last move decides which mini board you must play in — unless that board is already won or full, then you’re free to choose.

How do I win overall?

Win three mini boards in a row, column, or diagonal of the big grid.
