The board game requires two or more alternating players to place tiles on a game board while attempting to form a sequential line along a row, column, or diagonal of the board while simultaneously preventing the opponent(s) from doing so. One rule requires the winning player to form a line of tiles of precisely the number required to win, i.e., a longer line does not win. Another rule prohibits players from forming multiple branched lines having a single common point, if those lines are within two tiles of the number required to win. Thus, a player may not form two joined lines having four potential playing orientations to win, with the opponent having only three turns remaining to block such play. Players may select the number of tiles required for a win, and/or the size of the game board. The game may also be adapted to computer or electronic play.
