Details: If you line up 4 pieces of the same color vertically, horizontally, diagonally, or in the back, you win!
A competitive brain game of look ahead and spatial recognition.

This is a competitive game that uses Gomoku, which is played on a flat surface, as a four-dimensional object.
Take turns pointing the balls, and if you line up 4 of your balls in a straight line, either vertically, horizontally, or diagonally, you win! You also win if you line up 4 balls diagonally.
Because it is three-dimensional, you have to consider not only vertical, horizontal, and diagonal dimensions, but also depth, so "spatial recognition ability" and "ability to read ahead" are the keys.
Although it has simple rules that can be enjoyed by both children and adults, it is a deep game that requires multifaceted strategies.

- The color of the game table and the balls are different, so it is easy to see the arrangement of the balls.
・The package becomes a ball storage area during the match.
・The ball is a little flat so it doesn't roll easily
・Supervised by Yoshinori Yamashita, representative of the thinking skills training course ``Puzzle Dojo'' and ``Puzzle Education Study Group.'' The How to Play Guide contains advice on how to play.

[How to play]
