Level 2 introduces a rotational energy arena where strategy matters more than simple placement. The classic square grid is replaced with a circular energy layout, forcing players to think visually and plan every move carefully.
Each tap activates an energy node and permanently links it to the current player. Once activated, a node cannot be reused, making every decision important.
After every move, the game checks predefined energy link combinations. When a player successfully connects three compatible nodes, a glowing energy line appears showing the exact winning path.
Immediately after a win, a confetti explosion is triggered and the winner’s score is updated automatically.
Speed Mode adds time pressure to Level 2 by limiting each turn to 10 seconds. A visible countdown timer appears during the player’s turn.
Level 2 removes the traditional square grid and replaces it with a rotational energy arena, making memorized patterns ineffective and increasing strategic depth.
Once an energy node is activated, it becomes permanently linked to that player. This rule prevents overwriting moves and ensures fair gameplay.
⚡ represents Electric Energy used by Player X, while 🔵 represents Plasma Orb Energy used by Player O, allowing instant recognition of node ownership.
The game checks predefined energy link combinations. If all three nodes in a valid path belong to the same player, the win is confirmed.
In Speed Mode, if the timer reaches zero, the current player loses their turn and control switches automatically to the opponent.
If all nine energy nodes are filled and no valid energy link exists, the match ends in a draw and is recorded in the draw counter.
Level 2 is primarily skill-based. Success depends on pattern recognition, blocking strategies, and effective time management.
The confetti explosion serves as a visual reward, celebrating successful energy domination and enhancing player satisfaction.
