THE PRODUCT

The problem
and the approach.

The challenge

A familiar game can still feel unfinished when turns are unclear, a restart loses the score or the computer always plays the same way. A short session needs an obvious mode choice, understandable results and an easy route into the next round.

The approach

Keep the board, turn validation and round results local. Easy uses random moves, medium looks for immediate wins and blocks, and hard searches the game tree with minimax. Same-device multiplayer, winning-line feedback and separate board/score resets give the game a complete round-to-round flow, with sound, haptics and theme preferences.

Who it helps

People wanting a short offline game against the computer or another person sharing the same phone.

A typical workflow

  1. Choose two-player mode or a computer opponent and difficulty.
  2. Take turns until a win or draw, with the result shown clearly.
  3. Start a new round with the running score, or reset scores and change preferences.

ENGINEERING

How it
is built.

Game state

Turns, valid moves, results, and restarts are handled locally.

Different AI strategies

The documented hard opponent searches the game tree rather than using the same strategy with a different label.

A complete small experience

Themes and persisted preferences support the game without introducing accounts or online play.

OUTCOME

An Android game and companion website. It is a local game; online multiplayer and match-history features are not advertised.
