## How to play

Gomoku, five in a row, on a small wooden board in a raked zen garden. Black and white take turns placing a stone on any empty point, and the first to make an unbroken line of five or more, across, down or diagonally, wins. Build two threats at once to break through, and block the other side's open threes before they grow. Beat a garden rival to meet a wiser one, taking black every other game, or play a friend. Tap a point to show your stone there and tap it again to place it, or drag the preview, which rides above your finger. With a mouse, click a point. On a keyboard the arrows move the preview and Enter places it.
