Connect Four 2-Player - Pass and Play
Two humans, one device. Red goes first. Take turns tapping or clicking your column. Works great on a shared phone, tablet, or laptop.
Keys: 1-7 drop piece - R reset - click column to play
How to play pass and play
Pass and play is the original way to play - sit side by side with someone, decide who is Red and who is Yellow, and take turns clicking a column to drop your piece. On mobile, one person taps and hands the phone to the other.
Red always goes first. The current player's colour is highlighted in the status bar above the board. A winning line animates when four in a row are connected.
Click Undo to take back the last move. Click New Game (or press R) to start fresh. Move history is tracked - you can undo all the way back to the start.
Tips for a fair game
- Agree before you start who is Red and who is Yellow. Red has a first-move advantage.
- Play best of 3 or best of 5 to smooth out the first-move advantage over multiple games.
- Alternate who goes first each game to keep it fair.
- Use the Undo button sparingly - agree whether takebacks are allowed before the game starts.
