This game is like a cross between 'Connect4' and 'Tic-tac-toe'.

The idea is to get five Xs in a row – horizontally, vertically or diagonally.

The computer is trying to not just beat you but to place five in a row itself.

Not easy to win, this is a game which will challenge you right to the end. You can start anywhere you like on the 16x16 grid and the computer will follow your Xs with Os of its own.

There are alternative 'skinz' for this game at the author's website but we preferred the original. It could possibly be improved with some basic sound effects but this is a minor criticism.

We liked!
