📖 About This Game
The concept is well known: Try to form three criteria of the same type in a horizontal, vertical, or diagonal line. But be careful: in XOXO, you share a common display and don't want to place tiles that benefit the others. However, with a good nose and a little luck, you can achieve your goals before the others.
Gameplay:
On your turn, you must place 1 tile face up in the middle of the table, respecting the following rules:
You must choose either the top tile from your stack or the top tile from the shared stack.
The first tile played is the start of the common display, which will end up being exactly 3x3 tiles big.
Each additional tile must always be placed horizontally or vertically next to tiles that are already laid out.
Important: As soon as the shared display consists of exactly 9 tiles (=3x3 tiles in size) you must place all further tiles on tiles that are already laid out.
Fulfilling a goal card:
You may fulfill 1 goal card at any time, regardless of whose turn it is. If a criterion (color, shape, or face) of one of your goal cards appears 3 times in a horizontal, vertical, or diagonal line in the common display, you may show the corresponding goal card and place it face up in front of you.
The game ends immediately when either

or
any stack of tiles is used up. In this case, the player who has currently fulfilled the most objective cards wins. I
