About the game
A browser adaptation by Zarocer.
Drop counters into seven columns and connect four. Play the computer, take turns on one device, or try the daily board.
Controls
Click or tap a column to drop a disc. Use arrow keys and Enter to play by keyboard. Choose computer, two player, or daily mode
Check the landing square, not just the column
A counter stops at the lowest free square in the selected column. Before planning a horizontal or diagonal line, check whether the required square is supported by counters below it. You cannot place a disc into an unsupported gap.
Look for an immediate four on every turn, then a four your opponent can complete next. A move that blocks one threat can also support an opponent’s higher square, so inspect the resulting board rather than assuming every block is safe. Middle columns connect more potential lines, but a direct win or necessary defense takes priority.
Drop a counter, build a line
Choose a column with room for another counter. Your counter falls into its lowest empty position. Connect four horizontally, vertically or diagonally before the other player. A full board without a winning line ends in a draw.
Modes and controls
Choose computer or local two-player mode. Use the column buttons, tap the board, or press keys 1–7. Arrow keys change the selected column. The daily game starts from a fixed opening and does not offer Undo.
