Introduction: Educational games, in addition to providing distraction and fun, stimulate the development of children's thinking in logic and spatial areas. This research presents the optimization of an educational video game related games logic, known as Noughts and Crosses or Tic-Tac-Toe (in English), focused on children between 7 and 11 years. Method: To carry this out, we used the Object Oriented Hypermedia Design method for conceptual design and navigational application, which allows creating interactive and user friendly interfaces. In addition, Artificial Intelligence techniques used for the player simulated as well as controlled by computer, can emulate decisions for itself and be able to face the user. These Artificial Intelligence techniques are of heuristic type, implemented through an unprecedented numerical method based on finite numerical series, which differs from others of the same type, where it is common to use the algorithm of MIN-MAX. A virtual agent, that provides support to the users at different levels of difficulty of the game, was incorporated. Results: The results obtained show that there are cognitive differences by age, gender and level of difficulty in the game from a representative sample of children of an educational unit. Conclusion: This kind of program stimulates cognitive development in children who are in their primary stage of educational training.
