Frequently Asked Questions

How good are AI models at gomoku?

Better than at chess but beatable. Models block obvious fours, but a well-built double threat (two open threes at once) beats most of them. Every move is validated server-side.

Is playing really free?

Yes. Everyone gets three free games per day across all our AI games. No signup, no credit card, no downloads. The limit resets every 24 hours.

Is this the same as five in a row or Gobang?

Yes, gomoku is the classic five-in-a-row game, also called Gobang or omok. We play freestyle rules on a 15x15 board: exactly five or more in a row wins.

Which AI models can I play against?

The model list is fetched in real time from OpenRouter, including GPT, Gemini, Claude, Grok, DeepSeek, Qwen, Llama and more. New models show up automatically as they are released.

Can I watch two AIs play?

Yes. Choose "Watch AI vs AI" mode, pick a model for Black and one for White, and watch the whole duel stone by stone.
