WinFour

WinFour is a single player, shareware, implementation of the board game 'Connect Four'.

It has a tournament mode which plays a series of automatic games and five levels of difficulty which the author describes thus:* Random : even my dog can beat this one.

• Dumb: starts filling columns from left to right.
• Beginner: looks several moves ahead, but in a non-intelligent way
• Smart: analyses the board carefully, but looks only 1 move ahead.
• Advanced: analyses the board carefully and looks several moves ahead.

The game is entirely mouse controlled and was written, again in the author's words, 'as a means to experiment with different strategies or game playing algorithms'.
