About

This web game made by Bowserinator.

Connect6 was introduced in 2003 by Professor I-Chen Wu at Department of Computer Science and Information Engineering, National Chiao Tung University in Taiwan.

Compared to Gomoku (Connect5), which has a definitive first-player advantage (thus, requiring complex tournament rules) Connect6 is generally a lot fairer, based on experimental evidence.
