 Now did you notice that this sort of game is quite funny for the first
time but gets annoying as you might notice with wise setting your first
FrogStein BirdStein has _no_ chance at all to win, not even for a draw
(unless the FrogStein player is a lousy dumba**  ;)).

 But nice idea anyway  ;)
Maybe you can try on that "4 times 4 times 4 - 4 wins" game? Although
the 3D-effect is a little tricky it shouldn't be that hard for an artist
like you  :)
