Place two stones per turn (after a one-stone opening) and try to get six or more in a row. Overlines count.

Inventor: Professor I-Chen Wu

See BoardGameGeek: Connect6.

Edges wrap.

After the opening, the first stone of a turn must be collinear with a stone played last turn, and the second must be collinear with the first.

The two stones of a turn must not be collinear. Win with five or more in a row.

Player 1 places one centre stone; player 2 places two stones in the centre 5×5; player 1 places two anywhere; player 2 may swap colours.

After the opening, a player may pass to claim the tiebreak. If the board fills with no six, the player who passed wins; if nobody passed, player 2 wins.
