Gomoku — Five in a Row, refined. A meditative, fully offline take on the timeless five-in-a-row board game. No accounts, no ads, no tracking. Just you, the board, and a thinking AI. CORE FEATURES • Classic 15×15 board with crisp wood-grain visuals and warm dark theme. • Six AI difficulty levels — Novice, Easy, Medium, Hard, Expert, Master — built on heuristic scoring and minimax search up to depth-3. • Renju Forbidden Rule (optional, applied to black): double-three, double-four and overline are restricted, faithfully reproducing professional rule sets. • One-tap Undo to revert your last full round, perfect for learning. • Beautiful animated stones, last-move highlight, hint toggle. • Local statistics: total games, wins, losses, draws, real-time win rate, instant reset. • Haptic feedback and subtle sound effects (both can be disabled). WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT • 100% offline. No network requests, ever. • No accounts, no sign-ups, no ads, no in-app purchases. • All data stays on your device. • iPhone-optimized portrait layout, dark mode by design. WHO IT'S FOR • Casual players who want a quick, calming match. • Strategy lovers seeking a sharp opponent. • Anyone who wants to learn Gomoku from scratch — start at Novice and climb to Master. Place your stone. Plan five in a row. Outwit the silicon.
