Advanced Tic Tac Toe Game

Overview

This project is a Tic Tac Toe game developed using Qt C++. It features both multiplayer and single-player modes with three difficulty levels: Easy, Medium, and Hard. The game employs the minimax algorithm for medium and hard modes, while the easy mode uses a simpler algorithm to select moves. Additionally, the game records every move in a database and maintains a history of all played matches. A registration system (login and signup) is also implemented, utilizing QtSql for database operations.

Features

• Multiplayer Mode: Play against another player.
• Single Player Mode:
  • Easy: Uses a simple algorithm to select moves.
  • Medium: Employs the minimax algorithm for a challenging experience.
  • Hard: Utilizes the minimax algorithm for the most challenging experience.
• Game History: Records and maintains the history of all played matches.
• Move Recording: Each move is recorded in the database.
• User Registration: Includes a registration system with login and signup functionality.
• Database Integration: Uses QtSql to manage the game database.

Installation

Prerequisites

• Qt: Make sure you have Qt installed on your system. You can download it from Qt Downloads.
• QtSql: Ensure that QtSql is installed and properly configured.
• C++ Compiler: A compatible C++ compiler is required.

Steps

1. Clone the Repository:

   git clone https://github.com/al-sakka/Advanced_Tic_Tac_Toe

2. Open the Project: Open the project using Qt Creator or any other compatible IDE.

3. Configure the Database:

   • Ensure your database is set up correctly.
   • Update the database connection details in the project source code as necessary.

4. Build and Run:

   • Build the project using your IDE.
   • Run the executable to start playing.

Usage

Single Player Mode

1. Select "Single Player" from the main menu.
2. Choose the desired difficulty level: Easy, Medium, or Hard.
3. Play against the computer.

Multiplayer Mode

1. Select "Multiplayer" from the main menu.
2. Play against another player on the same device.

Registration

1. Register a new account using the "Sign Up" option.
2. Log in using the "Login" option to access the game's features.

Viewing Game History

1. Log in to your account.
2. Access the game history from the main menu to view all previously played matches.

Algorithms

Minimax Algorithm

• Medium Difficulty: The minimax algorithm is used to provide a challenging game experience.
• Hard Difficulty: The minimax algorithm ensures the highest level of challenge.

Easy Mode Algorithm

• A simple algorithm that searches for empty cells to make a move.

Database

• The game uses QtSql to interact with the database.
• Every move and game result is recorded for future reference.
• User information and game history are stored securely.
