Ratings and reviews

good for practice, but easy mode is insultingly easy, and medium mode is a big challenge, but you get better with time. i recommend you don't take long breaks from playing like i did because depending on how adaptable you are to the game, you may have to rebuild skill. the challenge and overall progress of getting better on medium mode make it worth it. after mastering medium mode, i suggest moving on to self teaching strategies or online lessons.

The cells are so small that you sometimes select the wrong point. you need tiny fingers 😂 One star less because the game has a fixed board and doesn't allow choosing 9x9 or other types. Otherwise it is the best gomuku of all available.

I've been playing the game for 90 seconds and I've experienced three ads in three different languages. Which makes it completely unplayable. This is just an ad revenue generating machine at the expense of the sanity of people who make the mistake of downloading this game.
