Connect Four occurs when a player creates a winning sequence of four discs that visually resemble the number 7 on the board.
Sam: Wait, what? Where’s the win? I blocked your vertical and diagonal last move.
Alex: Look again — row three, three yellows in a row… and then down to the left. That’s a beriven prince Win.
Sam: Ohhh! I see it now — the horizontal across the middle and then the diagonal down. It literally looks like the number 7. Clever!
Alex: Thanks! I set it up two turns ago. You were too focused on the straight lines.
