Projects: Gomoku

< Back to the projects overview page...

Play a game of connect five against your friend or the challenging AI.

Gomoku (also known as Connect Five or Pente™ — see Wikipedia) is a traditional and very popular game that is a lot of fun and easy to play for two players. All you need is a sheet of checkered paper, a pen and a friend, and you're ready to go. Your task is to get an unbroken row of five stones in a horizontal, vertical or diagonal row. As you play in turns, you will usually have to think of some nasty traps in order to win.

Gomoku for S60 / UIQ lets you play this game everywhere, no matter if you have got a sheet of paper, a pen or a friend near you. It allows playing both in single player mode against a challenging artificial intelligence as well as in two-player mode. Additionally, you can freely define the board size and activate the "pair check" option, which allows to capture enemy stones.
