Gomoku
Five in a Row - or Connect five in a 3D board
Gomoku is an extended version of Tic-Tac-Toe, played on an infinite board (use the keys "-" and "+" on your keyboard to change its size).
The winner is the first player to get 5 spheres in a row, orthogonally or diagonally. You get to go first, and a red sphere marks your squares.
The computer plays the magenta spheres, and is remorseless and unrelenting. Move the mouse with the button pressed in order to rotate the board. It is possible to do courses and to revolve the board.
