Lines of Four Game

Take classic Connect Four to the next level with this dynamic and innovative twist! This strategy game keeps players on their toes with not just traditional skinny pegs, but also hollow barrels that can cover other pieces. Players must carefully consider each move as they race to line up four of their colour in a row-vertically, horizontally, or diagonally.

But here's the challenge: your opponent can claim your space by placing a barrel over your peg-or even outmatch your barrel with a larger one! It's a game of planning, anticipation, and tactical decisions that makes it fun for both children and adults alike.

Whether played in the classroom or at home, this unique version of Connect Four builds key thinking skills while promoting social engagement.
