Adding the Tic-Tac-Toe app to a World
What is Tic-Tac-Toe?
Tic-Tac-Toe is a classic two person sidewalk chalk game in SchoolSpace. Players take turns marking either an 'X' or an 'O' in empty squares. The objective is to be the first to create a horizontal, vertical, or diagonal line of three of your marks.

Playing Tic-Tac-Toe
Everyone can play Tic-Tac-Toe! Two players are needed to start the game.
To Play Tic-Tac-Toe:
-
Click either the 'X' or 'O' and have your opponent click the other. After both players click an option, the game will start.
- If you don't have someone to play with, try sending a message in the 'Everyone in World' chat channel and invite someone to join your game.
- An Activity Feed notification with an option to teleport to the game will also appear automatically to give folks a heads up that a game needs another player to begin.
-
The text above the board shows whose turn it is right now. Click a space in the board to place your piece. Like traditional tic-tac-toe, the objective is to get 3 symbols in a row diagonally, across or up and down.
-
The game ends when one player wins by having three in a row or all spaces in the board are filled.

To clear the board and start a new game: Click the 'Reset' button in the world.

Filter Results search bar. - Hover over the thumbnail image and click Drop Scene
.
- Click an area in the world to drop the Tic-Tac-Toe app in that location.

More Tips:

If your Tic-Tac-Toe app is not visible after dropping the Tic-Tac-Toe app scene, it may be hidden behind a bottom layer asset. While in Builder Mode, click the asset hiding your Tic-Tac-Toe app and go to Configuration → Layers → Send to Back.
-
It's easy to move a Tic-Tac-Toe app to a new spot! While in Builder Mode, move the 'Reset' button asset to the new location. Then exit Builder Mode and click the 'Reset' button. The old grid will disappear and a new grid will generate above the 'Reset' button in a new location.
