Puzzle Description:

Anyone remember this game?

#1: Sylvain "WCPman" (qwerty) on Sep 9, 2008 [SPOILER]

Tetris???

CONNECT FOUR!!!! :) It took me a second to figure out how the move was winning. Obviously I was a terrible player.

I feel stupid rigth now

it was so ovious

videogame are bad for the brain now I see what they mean...

Ditto exactly #2, word for word. The only thing I would add would be that I, personally, would place my red piece in the 2nd column, not the fourth, just for ease of seeing the winning move! LOL

For the longest time, as I started to fill in the reds and blacks, I keep thinking it was some sort of weird checkers set-up.

One more thing.... as I sat looking at this picture, I counted each person's pieces (each has placed 14 so far). Yet how is it possible that RED has the top piece on every column?

I thought it was Tetris, too.
Pretty sneaky, Sis.

You two are sisters? Who knew??? LOL

I knew it was connect 4 right away (good visual)
:)

connect 4 all the way
and red has such an advantage this way!!!

lol

that just means that black was really bad to begin with cuz they must have gotten the first several moves without any red to block their way.
Fun puzzle. Good job.

I was thinking the same thing Stephanie thought. That commercial is a classic.

Also, it was interesting to read someone wrote a Master's thesis on whether or not Connect Four is won for the first player or a draw.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Connect_Four has all the information, if we haven't broken our brains enough on puzzles that require moderate lookahead.
