π How to play Five in a Row
- Take turns placing a piece on an empty square. You are the blue pieces.
- Whoever gets five pieces in a row wins: horizontally, vertically or diagonally.
- Block the rival's lines before they complete their five.
- If the board fills up without five in a row, it's a draw.
π‘ Tip: create double threats (two lines of four at once); the rival won't be able to block both.
