Four in a Row
Drop discs into a grid of seven columns and be first to line up four, whether across, up and down or diagonally. Play the computer at one of three levels, or a friend on the same screen.

How to play
Tap a column and your disc drops to the lowest empty space in it. Then the other side takes a turn.
Line up four of your own discs, sideways, upright or on a diagonal, before your opponent does. Watch their threes as closely as your own.
“Take back” undoes your last move and the computer’s reply. Changing the level or who goes first begins a fresh game.
A tip
More possible fours run through the middle column than any other, so it makes a solid first move.
Aim for a move that sets up two threats at once, because only one of them can be blocked.
