Overview
Three in a row isn't a win. It's a shot.
TIC.EXE: Tic-Tac-Toe Roguelite is a tactical deckbuilder played on a tic-tac-toe grid. You are a process inside someone else's machine: you write X into its memory, the system answers with O. Clear eight sectors before the terminal answers the launch request on its own.
Line up three of your marks and the line detonates: the marks burn away and the hostile process takes damage. Damage is the line length squared: three hits for 9, four for 16, five for 25. The board never ends in a draw — it reloads.
• 20 cards with upgraded forms, 30 modules, 7 cores
• chain reactions: one blast completes the next line
• 20 hostile processes and 6 bosses with their own faces
• the grid grows: 4×4, 5×5, 6×6
• shop, events, anomalies and firmware between runs
• daily challenge and endless mode
