Connect 4 is the arcade version of this classic game, which looks and feels exactly like the offline version. The objective is to be the first to reach 4 in a row, either horizontally, vertically or even diagonally. The game involves a lot of strategy as you need to trick your opponent into allowing you to reach 4 in a row, as they will do anything in their power to foil your plans, and reach this objective first.
The rules of the game are simple, players drop in their coins in turns, and the first one who reaches 4 of the same color in a straight row wins the game. The nice part of Connect 4 is that with this online variant of the game, you can actually play against a friend as the game comes in one and two player mode.
Connect 4 is every bit as enjoyable as the classic original, and even looks identical. The advantage of playing it online is that you can even play it by yourself against the computer, something that was not an option playing the original game.
Those who like strategy games will do well to add this game to their favorites list, as this is one they will want to come back to often.
