Yonmoque

A mobile game adaptation of Yonmoque (ヨンモク), a board game designed in 1997 by Japanese board game creator Mitsuo Yamamoto.

A two-player strategy game, which uses a 5 x 5 grid board containing blue, white, and neutral tiles. Both players start with 6 pieces, and take alternate turns (blue goes first).

In every turn, players can either place a piece anywhere on the board, or move one that they have already placed. If a player traps (through movement) one or more of the opponent's pieces, the trapped pieces are flipped over to the capturing player’s color.

First to have 4 pieces in a row (through movement) wins the game, but having 5 in a row makes you lose the game.

MULTIPLAYER - Play with other people from around the world! Choose to play online, and create your own room or join someone else's room. You can also opt to play on the same phone (if you want to play with someone who's literally beside you, using just one phone).

PLAY WITH AI - There is an option to play with an AI, though at the moment it is not that strong, and is only meant for practice, especially for newer players.

Give the game a shot, and have a chance to play with the game's creator himself, Mitsuo Yamamoto!
