🎮 What is Omok?
Omok (also known as Gomoku or Five in a Row) is a strategic board game where
two players take turns placing stones on a board, aiming to be the first to create an unbroken line of five
stones horizontally, vertically, or diagonally. With thousands of years of history in East Asia including Korea,
Japan, and China, this game combines simple rules with deep strategy, making it enjoyable for beginners and
experts alike.
📋 Basic Rules
Game Setup: The game uses a
15×15 or 19×19 board with black and white stones. God Game Platform uses a 15×15 board.
Starting the Game: Black
moves first, and players alternate placing stones on intersections. Once placed, stones cannot be moved or
removed.
Victory Condition: The first
player to create an unbroken line of 5 stones in any direction (horizontal, vertical, or diagonal)
wins immediately. Under Renju rules, Black must make exactly 5; an overline of 6 or more is a forbidden move
for Black, not a win.
Forbidden Moves: God
Game Platform applies Renju rules. Black (the first player) is bound by forbidden moves — double-three
(3-3),
double-four (4-4), and overline (6+ stones) — and cannot play on those points. White has no
restrictions.
Draw: If the entire board is
filled without a winner, the game ends in a draw.
💡 Winning Strategies
Control the Center: Start by occupying the center of the board. Playing from the center
gives you attack opportunities in all 8 directions.
Create Open Fours: Create a line of 4 stones with both ends open. Your opponent can only
block one side, guaranteeing your victory on the next move.
Double Three (3-3) Attack: Create two open threes simultaneously. Your opponent can only block
one, making this a powerful offensive technique.
Four-Three (4-3) Attack: Create a four and an open three at the same time. Your opponent must
block the four, allowing your three to become a winning four.
Balance Attack and Defense: Always block your opponent's three-in-a-row while building your own
attack lines. Focusing only on offense leaves you vulnerable to counterattacks.
Watch the Diagonals: Horizontal and vertical lines are easy to spot, but diagonal
connections are often overlooked. Always check diagonal directions.
🏆 Tips for Beginners
Check your opponent's stone placement every turn. Always block when they have three
in a row.
Don't focus solely on attack. Develop a habit of thinking about both offense and
defense.
Place stones where they can connect in multiple directions simultaneously.
Read your opponent's patterns and defend preemptively to create comeback
opportunities.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
问：五子棋（Gomoku (Omok)）和连珠（Renju）有什么区别？
答：五子棋是基础自由规则版本，通常无禁手；连珠为平衡黑先优势，对黑方加入禁手（双三、双四、长连）的正式竞技规则。God Game Platform 采用连珠规则，因此黑方受禁手限制。
问：黑方（先手）是否总是有优势？
答：通常黑方有轻微先手优势。理论上在完美对弈下黑方可能获胜。职业规则会通过黑方禁手或交换规则来平衡。
问：AI 难度有什么区别？
答：简单（Easy）面向新手，以基础防守为主；中等（Medium）接近普通玩家水平；困难（Hard）会使用更高级战术与模式识别，挑战更大。
问：如何进行在线对战？
答：点击“Quick Match”可自动匹配水平相近的对手；也可点击“Create Room”创建私密房间邀请好友，或从房间列表加入现有对局。
问：fo 分数是什么？
答：fo 是 God Game Platform 的评分。胜利会上升，失败会下降，变动幅度与双方实力差有关。fo 越高通常代表实力越强。
