About this game
4 in a Blow takes the classic Connect 4 formula and adds a power meter that fills with every move. Because everyone already knows how to drop tokens and line up four, you can jump straight into the action. Spend your charged power to lock a column, swap two tokens, remove a piece from the board, or take two drops in a single turn.
The game keeps things fair with one firm rule: a power can never win on its own. It can only help you set up a winning line or block your opponent, so the final move is always a regular token drop. You can play pure Connect 4 against the computer or a friend in Classic mode, use the full set of powers in Blast, or try Wakie, a quick 90-second score attack with rotating powers that ends in a Turbo Time finish.
Easy to pick up, tough to read ahead. It runs free in your browser with no download needed.
How to play
Click or tap a column to drop your token. It falls to the lowest open spot in that column. Connect four of your tokens in a row horizontally, vertically, or diagonally to win. In Blast and Wakie modes, every turn fills your power meter, and when it is full you can use a power.
