BoardAbout this game
A connect 5 board game. The players alternate in placing stones of their color. The players aim to align five stones of the same color (vertical, horizontal or diagonal). Captures are obtained by flanking pairs of an opponent's stones in any same direction (captures must consist of pairs; flanking a single stone does not result in a capture). A player wins by scoring five stones in a row, or capturing five pairs of opponent stones.
How to Play
Put your stone on any empty intersection of the board to start the game. Take turns turns with your opponent, each placing one stone per turn. Attempt to line up five of your stones in a row diagonally to win. Remove your opponent's stones by flanking two of their stones with yours on both ends. Remember that only pairs of stones can be captured; single stones cannot be captured. Succeed by either creating a line of five stones or securing five pairs of your opponent's stones. Modify your strategy based on your opponent's moves to stop their progress and promote your own.
