Everyone knows Tic-Tac-Toe. You’ve played it as a kid bored in school, with your parents waiting at a restaurant, etc. However, for all intents and purposes Tic-Tac-Toe is a boring game. In fact, if you know what you’re doing you are guaranteed a win or at least a tie. Hidden Variable Studios realized how boring and repetitive the classic Tic-Tac-Toe is and decided to revamp it and make it a game worth playing again. The game in question is called Tic Tactics and basically is like playing a huge metagame of Tic-Tac-Toe.
TA - "Back in the day when our brains were just in their formative years and we didn't have a mobile, touchscreen device to entertain us, we could entertain ourselves with nothing but a pencil and a piece of paper from a notebook that should have been used for studying. Tic-Tac-Toe was the favorite in my circle of friends."
Tic Tac Toe… where would we be without it? I don’t have an answer to that question but the game has been around for over 3000 years so it should come as no surprise the creative types have been trying to reinvent it with forgettable results but what if I told you developer Hidden Variable might have succeeded?
The guys behind Bag It!, a grocery themed Tetris smartphone game, Hidden Variable Studios are back in action with their newest creation:Tic Tactics – a reinvention of the age old playground game Tic Tac Toe.
