Gomoku Narabe, also known as Gobang, Omok and Wuzechi, is a strategic board game. "Go" means "five" in Japanese, "Moku" means "pieces" and "Narabe" means to line up in a row. This games is almost identical to Tic-Tac-Toe except instead of three in a row, you need to get five in a row to win. The board also varies in sizes (11x11, 15x15 and 19x19). Though the fundamentals and the rules of the game are simple, there is a lot of depth to this game with various strategies.

The goal of Gomoku Narabe is to make a row of five stones. The winning row can be horizontal, vertical or diagonal. The two players, they pick to play as black or white. The player playing as black always makes the first move. Then the players take turns making their moves.

When you encounter an open row of three from your opponent, open meaning the row of three stones are not blocked by you on either side, be sure to block it. Otherwise an open row of four is too late to block, since it will become a winning row the very next hand.
