Gomoku Narabe Renju

Gomoku Narabe Renju was the fourth game released for the Famicom by Nintendo. ‘GoMoku’ is Japanese and means ‘5 Points’ and ‘Narabe’ translates to ‘in-a-row’. It is similar to a game of Tic-Tac-Toe on first sight. It is often known as ‘Connect Five’, ‘Spoil Five’, ‘Pegity’ or ‘Go-bang’ in the West among many other variations. Do not be confused that the word ‘Go’ is in the title. The game is merely played with a Go board and pieces, but ‘Go’ means ‘Five’ in Japanese as well. This game also follows ‘Renju’ rules, so often the game is just referred to as ‘Renju’
