Gomoku is an abstract strategy board game. It is traditionally played with go pieces (black and white) on a go board. However, this game is known in several countries under different names. Gomoku is originated from China (五子棋) and popular in Japan (五目並べ), Korea (오목) and all over the world. It is also known as Renju, Gobang, Connect 5 or Five in a row.

Black plays first, and players alternate in placing a stone of their color on an empty intersection.
The winner is the first player to get an unbroken row of five stones horizontally, vertically, or diagonally.
