# Tic-Tac-Two

A modern twist on the classic Tic-Tac-Toe game, introducing new strategies and dynamic gameplay.

## 🕹️ Play Now

Try the game live at: [tic-tac-two.onrender.com](https://tic-tac-two.onrender.com)

## 🚀 Features

- **Modern Rules:** Experience new mechanics—only the last 6 moves remain on the board, creating unique strategies beyond classic Tic-Tac-Toe.

- **Multiplayer:** Play against another person locally, with automatic player symbol assignment.

- **Dynamic Gameplay:** As older moves disappear, plan ahead for a moving target!

- **Simple, Responsive UI:** Clean design, works great on desktop and mobile.

- **Open Source:** All code is available here—contributions and ideas are welcome!

## 💡 What Makes It Unique?

- **Move History Constraint:** Only the 6 most recent moves are visible on the board. Older moves vanish, making each game unpredictable and requiring new tactics.

- **Session-based Player Assignment:** Each player is assigned X or O per session, ensuring fairness.

- **Modern Stack:** Java backend with a React-based frontend.
