Four in a row

Invented in 1974

Four in a row is a two-player connection board game, in which the players choose a color and then take turns dropping colored discs into a seven-column, six-row vertically suspended grid. The pieces fall straight down, occupying the lowest available space within the column. The objective of the game is to be the first to form a horizontal, vertical, or diagonal line of four of one’s own discs.

Variants

On Little Golem, the game is played on four board sizes: 6x7 (classic), 8x8, 9x9 and 10x10.
