Super Tic Tac Toe is a turn-based strategy board game with simple rules of Tic Tac Toe.

Super Tic Tac Toe is known by many different names, including Mega Tic Tac Toe, Ultimate Tic Tac Toe and Tic Tac Toe on Nine Boards.

How to play

Super Tic Tac Toe is like original Tic Tac Toe but with nine boards in a 3x3 grid. The trick is that a player can't choose freely which board to play on.

First move

The starting player can first choose any of nine boards, and then play on that board exactly like in original Tic Tac Toe.

Following moves

The next player must always play on a board matching a cell played on the previous turn - each cell map to a similarly positioned board.

In the example, X played in the cell number 6, so O must play on the board number 6 (in yellow).

Because O decided to play in the middle cell, X will play next on the middle board.

The game then continues like that turn-by-turn.

Additional important rule: If a board was already resolved (win or full), a player can't play on that board, but chooses freely any unresolved board.

Winning the game

The first player to get three boards in a horizontal, vertical or diagonal line wins the game. Note that it's three boards instead of cells as in original Tic Tac Toe.

Here is an example of an almost completed game: It's O's turn on the yellow board, but it doesn't matter where O plays anymore, since X can win the top-right board next, and thus, X wins three board in up-right line.

Simple strategy game

Super Tic Tac Toe has no winning strategy, unlike the original Tic Tac Toe game, and I have very little to say about that. However, it's obvious that winning a single Tic Tac Toe board doesn't really mean much at all.

If you ever needed confirmation that the Windows Era is drawing to a close, this is it: The new version of North Korea’s Red Star OS, which previously mimicked Windows XP, now looks like Apple’s OS X. Yes, all twelve of the North Korean citizens who have been granted the esteemed privilege of owning and using a PC by the supreme leader are now forced to use a Mac-like interface on a daily basis.

Historically, North Korea — just like China and other large swaths of Asia — has used old, pirated, and typically heavily modified versions of Windows. Back in 1999, trying to reduce its reliance on Western tech, China began development of Red Flag Linux. In 2002, probably following suit, North Korea’s government-run IT research center (the Korea Computer Center) started developing Red Star OS.

Red Star 3.0 built-in email client

Due to the secretive nature of North Korea, all the information we have about Red Star comes from international students and academics who have occasionally picked up a copy of the OS from the Pyongyang University shop. As of version 2.0, Red Star OS uses the Linux 2.6 kernel and KDE 3.x for the user interface (and there’s actually a torrent of Red Star 2.0, if you want to take a look yourself). Red Star 3.0, despite the radical overhaul to look like OS X, doesn’t appear to have made the jump to KDE 4.x, and there’s no confirmation on which version of the Linux kernel it uses (probably 3.x).

Looking at the screenshots compiled by North Korea Tech, it’s actually quite impressive just how far North Korea has gone to accurately mimic the UI of OS X. The rounded corners, window drop shadows, and menu bar gradients, are all pretty well done. The dock, after some rudimentary analysis, appears to have been custom built by the Korea Computer Center — and while static images can’t tell us if it feels like OS X, it certainly looks the part. Beyond the OS itself, it appears Red Star 3.0 has a built-in web browser, a video player, and a contact manager and email client. In Red Star 2.0 the browser was based on Firefox, but it isn’t clear if that’s still the case. Wine, the Windows emulator, is also installed by default.

As for why Red Star now looks like OS X, we’ll probably never know. It’s not like Apple is suddenly selling millions of laptops in North Korea, forcing the state-run Korea Computer Center to release a version of Red Star that the population will understand. Maybe the director of the KCC grew bored of the Windows look-and-feel, which Red Star had used for over 10 years. Or perhaps the answer is even simpler: Maybe supreme leader Kim Jong-un is a bit of an Apple fan, and thus decreed that the entire country should follow suit.
