A 4 in a row with 4 pieces and no board.
All 4 pieces are one sided and are made up of right angled pieces in these color patterns, 2 (red, black, red) and 2 (black, red, black) pieces.
Get 4 in a row of your color for the win.
One player is red the other black.
Decide who plays first then play alternates.
1. On your turn place a piece orthogonally adjacent to another piece.
2. If after playing all the pieces there is no winner, do the following on your turn, move a piece then place it orthogonally adjacent to another piece.
3. You may not move a piece that would by its removal create two groups, as shown in Figures 1 - 2
4. You may not move the last piece placed by your opponent on your turn.
5. If by chance you create a 4 in a row for your opponent and yourself on the same turn, your opponent wins the game.
Play continues like this until you have a winner.

2 questions:
ReplyDelete1) What happens if someone makes 4 in a row for the adversary and himself in the same turn? (I suggest that this should be a win for the adversary)
2) Could you clarify the piece movement rules? Which pieces can be moved and under which conditions? For example: Can the "board" be disconnected? Even if at the end of the movement it is connected again?
Thanks again Carlos, did not see that. I've changed the rules and added your suggestions.
