Gomoku, free to play

Place stones and get five in a row before the computer does. Three levels, with hints and undo.

How to play

Place a stone
You play black and go first. Tap any empty square to put a stone there. Then the computer plays white.
Make five in a row
The first to get five stones in a straight line, across, down or diagonally, wins.
Block as well
Watch the computer's lines too. Block a line of four straight away, and look for ways to make two lines at once.
