Frequently Asked Questions

Is playing tic-tac-toe against AI really free?

Yes. Everyone gets three free games per day across all our AI games. No signup, no credit card, no downloads. The limit resets every 24 hours.

Can AI language models actually play tic-tac-toe well?

Mostly, and the misses are the fun part. Perfect tic-tac-toe always ends in a draw, but language models sometimes miss a block or an open row, which is exactly when you can beat them. Every move is validated server-side, so the AI can never cheat.

Which AI models can I play against?

The model list is fetched in real time from OpenRouter, so you always see current models, including GPT, Gemini, Claude, Grok, DeepSeek, Qwen, Llama and more. New models show up automatically as they are released.

Can I watch two AIs play each other?

Yes. Choose "Watch AI vs AI" mode, pick a model for X and a model for O, and watch the game play out move by move. You can pause and resume at any time.

Do I need an account?

No. The game runs entirely in your browser on desktop and mobile. Open the page, pick a mode and a model, and start playing.
