Which strategy game should you try?
Both games use short, visible rules, but the value of a move depends on the reply it allows. Begin at a comfortable difficulty and practice recognizing immediate threats before building longer plans.
- Tic Tac Toe — For learning threats and forks: start with the Classic board, then try Ultimate, where your chosen square also directs the opponent's next board.
- Connect Four — For planning under gravity: build threats in several directions and check whether the square you need is actually supported from below.
