Flip Cup Tic Tac Toe

Know the rules. Play fair. Give it your best shot.

How to Play

  • Two players compete against each other using a Tic Tac Toe grid and plastic cups.
  • One player is assigned X and the other is assigned O.
  • Before placing a symbol on the grid, the player must successfully flip a cup so that it lands upright on the playing surface.
  • Once the cup lands upright, the player may mark any available square with their assigned symbol.
  • Players take turns attempting cup flips and marking the grid.
  • If a player fails to flip the cup successfully, their turn ends, and the opponent gets the next turn.

Winning Criteria

  • The first player to complete a line of three consecutive symbols horizontally, vertically or diagonally wins the game.
  • If all nine squares are filled without either player completing a line of three, the game ends in a draw.
  • Players must not mark a square without first completing a successful cup flip.
