The Playing Area
The playing area consists of a three by three grid.

During a players turn, if the player has less than 3 of their peices on the
board they can place another one down into any empty square on the grid by
pressing the left mouse button.
If the player already has three peices on the board they can use the right
mouse button to drag one peice to any adjacent empty square.

Like Tic Tak Toe, form a horizontal, vertical or diagnol row with your pieces
