About GeoTacToe

GeoTacToe is a geography version of tic-tac-toe on Planetle. Every row and every column of the three-by-three board carries a geography criterion, and a cell can only be claimed by naming a country that satisfies both its row criterion and its column criterion. Two ways to play are offered: a match against a bot for practice, and a private room for a game with a friend. Players take turns picking a cell and entering a valid country, and the first player to claim three cells in a line wins.
