The game uses a 3x3 square board. 2 players take turns to play,
either placing a red on an empty square, or changing a red to
orange, or orange to green. The player who forms 3 of 1 colour in a
line wins.
In this game for two players, take it in turns to shade one petal, or two petals next to each other. Is it better to go first or second?

Since this is essentially a game we did not expect many "solutions" although we do like to hear about strategies you use in games, even if you haven't come up with a strategy which always works yet.
