3.0 GAME CONTROLS |
The aim of Connect 4 is very simple. You and a computer AI take turns to place a token in one of the eight columns. If four of your tokens (white) "connect" either diagonally, vertically or horizontally - you've won. If four of the AI's tokens (black) "connect" then you've lost.
The AI is quite good, so don't expect an easy win...
KEY ACTION 2nd / Enter Drop Token ON Quit
4.0 ADVANCED |
The AI on Connect 4 isn't stupid, to say the least. Try not to make any mistakes however, and lure it into a situation where no-matter what it could do you will win, and you should be able to beat it most if not all of the time.
