Tic Tac K.O.: Dragons vs Unicorns (2021)

About this game

Tic Tac K.O. is a quick-to-learn card game that puts a diabolical twist on Tic Tac Toe, letting you smack your opponents to the side as you claim squares in your quest for victory. These adorably ruthless Dragons and Unicorns won't hesitate to destroy their opponents with fire, lightning, or a swift kick in the patoot. In Tic Tac K.O., two teams battle for control of the Grid by playing Character and Magic cards featuring diabolical Dragons and unforgiving Unicorns. Players lay down cards one at a time on the tic-tac-toe grid to match the pattern on their Objective Cards. The first team to complete 3 Objectives wins the game! Pre-orders before 9/8/2021 received an exclusive holographic Team Unicorn card.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 4.
• Rules load. At 1.1/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 8 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
