I have a template I'm using and am very green when it comes to Articulate. The template has a reset/replay button but when clicked on while playing the game, the board does not clear. I can't seem to figure out what's needed to make the board clear when the user either clicks on the reset or replay button. I really need some help on this. Thanks in advance!
Without seeing the file it's hard to guess. Make sure that your slide properties are set to Reset to Initial state. You can always share your .story file and someone will have a closer look.
So happy I could help, Daphnee! I would say that game has a relatively complicated set-up with all those variables, so I can see why it was causing you grief! Now go have an aspirin, and hopefully your headache will dissipate soon. 😉
Unfortunately I ran into another issue when I attempted to play the game all the way through. Although it does clear the board, if I click on the same squares again to start a new game, it doesn't clear my answers. So the same questions I completed before will show in "review" form..only allowing me to view but not change my answers. Is it possible to clear the board AND the responses the user previously inputted?

Thanks Michael,
I've added the file here.
Hi Daphnee!
Wow, I can see you have put a lot of work into this file! I'm happy to help you set up triggers to reset the tic tac toe board.
I thought it would be easiest to explain in a video, so click here to take a Peek. 👀
Then, open the file I attached to get a closer look at the triggers I added. I hope that helps!
Hi Alyssa,
You are amazing! My head and the walls I've been banging it against to figure this out, thanks you! LOL. I'm so relieved this works.

Ah, great catch!
In that case, we need to add "Reset Results" triggers to the Reset layer on Slide 1.3.
Check out the updates I made to your file, and let me know if that'll work for you!
That did it. Thank you for help Aylssa!
