Multiplayer Tic Tac Toe

A LAN game developed using Java Socket & Multithreading where users can create custom rooms & play simultaneously.

Player can join from any platform (Windows, Linux or Mac).

• The unique feature of this project is that it allows multiple pair of players to play game concurrently.

• Game allows the players either to create a virtual game room or to join a virtual game room.

• When player choose to create a game room then system will generate a room which contains a unique name.

• When player choose to join a game room then system will ask for the game room name and once user enters it, he will be entered in that room where he can play against the other player who created that room.
