How to Play Connect Four Online
Connect Four is a two-player strategy game played on a 7-column, 6-row vertical grid. Players take turns dropping colored discs into a column — discs fall to the lowest available space. The first player to connect four discs in a row (horizontally, vertically, or diagonally) wins.
Connect Four Tips
- Own the center column: The center gives access to the most winning combinations in all four directions.
- Create double threats: Set up positions where you have two separate ways to win — your opponent can only block one.
- Think vertically: Don't just plan horizontal rows — vertical and diagonal wins are often easier to set up.
- Don't gift the center: Avoid giving your opponent free center column plays in the early game.
