How to play Four in a Row
- 1Choose a friend or the computer as your opponent. Red goes first.

- 3Line up four of your discs in a row, across, down or diagonally, to win.
- 4If the grid fills up with no line of four, it's a draw.
- Red: 0
- Yellow: 0
Red's turn
Variations
- Pop-out style: agree that on your turn you can remove one of your own discs from the bottom row instead of dropping one.
Tips
- Play in the middle columns. They're part of more possible lines than the edges.
