Connect Sketch

Drop coloured-pencil counters into a hand-drawn frame and be the first to line up four in a row: across, down or corner to corner. It's quick to learn and great to play with a friend, by text or on one phone.

How to play

  1. Pick who to play: invite a friend by text, pass one phone, or play the bot.
  2. Tap a column to drop your counter. It falls to the lowest empty space.
  3. Get four of your colour in a row across, down or corner to corner to win the round.
  4. Fill the whole frame with no four in a row and it's a draw. Who goes first swaps every round.

Controls

  • Tap anywhere in a column to drop a counter.
  • On a keyboard, press 1 to 7.
  • New round starts a fresh frame. Mode switches who you play.
  • The Sound button turns sound on or off.

Tips

  • The middle column is the strongest. Start there.
  • Before every move, check if the other player has three in a row with a gap. Block it!
  • Try to make two threats at once. They can only block one.
  • Watch out for diagonals. They're the easiest to miss.

About Connect Sketch

Connect Sketch is a classic four-in-a-row drop game, drawn on a sketchbook page with coloured-pencil counters.

On Hard, the bot looks ahead several moves and almost never misses a threat.
