About Link Four

It is a 2 player game where both sides share one board.

A line of four counts in any direction: across, straight up, or diagonally. Every disc you drop can build your own line and cut off your opponent's at the same time, so each turn is a small brain puzzle about attack and defense.

You only pick the column, and the disc lands on top of whatever is already stacked there. That means a move can open up the spot right above it for the other player. It plays like the classic upright board game with a vertical grid.

Key features

  • Two players take turns on one board with seven columns.
  • Four of your discs in a row wins, counted across, up or diagonally.
  • Each side drops discs in its own color, which also puts it among our coloring games.
  • It runs on phones in portrait mode.

Tips & tricks

  • Before every move, scan the board for three of your rival's discs in a line and block the open end.
  • Look at the spot above where your disc will land, because your move makes that spot playable for your opponent.
