Description
Gomoku, also known as Five in a Row, is a strategy-based board game played between two opponents. Participants take turns placing black and white stones on a grid traditionally sized at 19x19 intersections or a modern 15x15 sports variant. Victory is achieved by forming an unbroken line of five stones vertically, horizontally, or diagonally. Rule variations exist across regions, influencing specific gameplay nuances. Originating in China over two millennia ago, the game has evolved into a globally recognized pastime with structured tournaments and competitive leagues. Its blend of tactical depth and simplicity continues to attract enthusiasts, fostering international championships and dedicated player communities.
