What is Connect 4?

Connect 4 is a classic two player game where your goal is to be the first to line up four of your game pieces vertically, horizontally, or diagonally in the grid. Players take turns dropping their game pieces into the grid and block their opponent while creating their own winning line.

Playing Connect 4

Everyone can play Connect 4! Two players are needed to start the game.

If you don't have someone to play with, try sending a message in the 'Everyone in World' chat channel and invite someone to join your game. When one player starts a new game, an Activity Feed notification will also appear automatically with an option to Teleport teleport to the game to give folks a heads up that a game needs another player to begin.

 

To Play Connect 4:
  1. Click either the Red or Blue game piece next to the grid and have your opponent click the other. After both players click an option, the game will start.
