Subject: Please: Three in a Row BUT in the "Numbered" Version

Go up one level in this thread


Just a short question. I searched the internet without result. In Germany there
is a game, it's like tic-tac-toe. But it's a variation with special rules. It's
nine squares and each side has three pieces. BUT and this is new, each piece has
a number.

One side has 1 - 3 - 5
The other side has 2 - 4 - 6

Now you start but always with the pieces with the 1, next time your partner
starts with the 1

You are trying to get the 3 pieces or numbers in a row or a diagonal (no special
row in correct numbering is required!)

BUT the point is you MUST move always with the "next" number

For example if you have the "Blacks" with 2 - 4 - 6, then if White moved his 5,
by definition you must move your 6, even if you open the row for your partner.

THe exact name in German is as follows:

The game is from "MB" it's name is "X für O". So please be careful if there is
some copyright on the game. I ask only here for the possibility of a programmed
version just for study purposes, NOT marketing or business or such.

This is the game. Now my problem: I cant find it on the net. In a programmed
version, not on Ebay. LOL

Could someone help me or perhaps program the game in a couple of minutes? Sorry
if I just said something stupid, but IMO it must be trivial and of course a
computer would always win...
