Three men's morris is an abstract strategy game played on a three by three board (counting lines) that is similar to tic-tac-toe. The winner is the first player to align their three tokens on a line drawn on the board.

Play against a friend or the computer!

The game consists of two phases

1. Phase: Placing Tokens ➰

The board is empty to begin the game, and players take turns placing their tokens on empty intersections. Each player has three tokens.

2. Phase: Moving Tokens ➿

Once all pieces are placed (assuming there is no winner by then), play proceeds with each player moving one of their tokens per turn. A token may move to any adjacent linked empty position.
