五子棋是一种两人对弈的纯策略型汉族棋类益智游戏,棋具与围棋通用,由中国古代汉族人发明,起源于中国上古时代的传统黑白棋种之一。主要流行于华人和汉字文化圈的国家以及欧美一些地区。 五子棋,日文亦有“连五子、五子连、串珠、五目、五目碰、五格、五石、五法、五联、京棋”等多种称谓,英文则称之为“FIR(Five In A Row的缩写)、Gomoku(日语“五目”的罗马拼音)、Gobang、connect 5、mo-rphion”。捷克语piskvorky,韩语omok…… 许多国家的人对五子棋都有不同的爱称,例如,韩国人把五子棋称为“情侣棋”,暗示情人之间下五子棋有利于增加情感的交流;欧洲人称其为“绅士棋”,代表下五子棋的君子风度胜似绅士;日本人则称其为“中老年棋”,说明五子棋适合中老年人的生理特点和思维方式。 包含各种玩法: * 人机对战 * 人人对战 * 悔棋功能 * 棋盘放大功能 * 黑子禁手
