Object

Like Tic-Tac-Toe, the winner is the first player or team to get three X's or O's in a row – vertically, horizontally or diagonally. But TOSS ACROSS® is uniquely fun because the action switches back and forth, again and again.

How to Play

Place TOSS ACROSS® on the floor and turn all the Targets blank side up.

For 2 Players

1. Choose who will be X and who will be O. Each player takes 3 Bean Bags and stands on opposite sides of the game base, about 6 feet away.
2. The X player always starts. Toss 1 beanbag, either underhand or overhand, and try to hit a target.
3. Now the O player tosses 1 beanbag. The O player may try to hit the same target to reverse it, or try to turn up an O on another target.
4. Players take turns tossing 1 beanbag per turn until one player wins by turning up 3 of their symbols in a row (either vertically, horizontally or diagonally).

For Team Play

1. When there are 4 players, two stand on either side of the game base, 6 feet away.
2. Each team takes 3 bean bags and the order of play is as follows:
   • Player 1 on Team X tosses.
   • Player 1 on Team O tosses.
   • Player 2 on Team X tosses.
   • Player 2 on Team O tosses… and so on until one team turns up 3 of their symbols in a row.

Winning the Game

The first player of team to turn up 3 or their symbols in a row wins! [Printed as "The first player of team to turn up 3 or their symbols"; the intended wording is evidently "3 of their symbols".]
