## What is Gomoku?

Gomoku is the classic five-in-a-row board game, also known as Gobang. This version is built for focused offline play: open the board, choose your mode, and start a clean strategy match in seconds.

Practice against AI, play a local two-player game on the same device, or switch between Gomoku and Renju-style rules when you want a stricter challenge. The board is easy to read, the controls are simple, and every match stays close to the real five-in-a-row experience.

Features:

- Gomoku / Gobang / Five in a Row gameplay
- Offline single-player mode against AI
- Multiple AI difficulty levels, from beginner practice to expert challenge
- Local 2-player mode for playing with a friend on one device
- Gomoku and Renju rule options
- Forbidden-move markers for Renju play
- Undo support for practice and review
- Daily tasks, achievements, and progress records
- Clear board visuals designed for quick, comfortable games

Whether you are learning Gomoku for the first time or sharpening your five-in-a-row tactics, this is a calm, practical board game you can play anytime.
