3-D Tic-Tac-Toe

3D Tic-Tac-Toe is a computerized evolution of the classic pencil-and-paper game, expanded into a three-dimensional challenge. Instead of a simple 3x3 grid, players compete on a "cube" composed of four stacked 4x4 grids. The objective is to place four markers (X or O) in a row horizontally, vertically, or diagonally—either on a single level or slicing through multiple levels of the 3D cube.

3D Tic-Tac-Toe: Strategy in a New Dimension

Throw away your pencil and paper—the classic game of strategy has evolved.

Step into the future of logic with 3D Tic-Tac-Toe for the Atari 2600 Video Computer System. This isn't the simple child’s game you remember; this is a mental workout that expands the playing field into the third dimension, requiring foresight, cunning, and spatial awareness to master.

The Game

In standard Tic-Tac-Toe, you look for three in a row. In 3D Tic-Tac-Toe, the challenge is quadrupled. You must secure four X’s or O’s in a row to win. But here is the twist: you play across four separate 4x4 grids stacked vertically on your screen.

You can win horizontally, vertically, or diagonally on a single plane—or strike through the "cube" by lining up your markers straight down through all four levels!
