Capture - Strategic Five-in-a-Row
Capture is a modern take on the ancient game of five-in-a-row. Created by Gary Gabrel, it adds capture mechanics to create deeper strategic gameplay.
How to Play
Players alternate placing stones on a 19x19 grid. The objective is to get five stones in a row, but with a twist:
- Captures: If you flank two of your opponent's stones with your own, you can capture and remove them
- Five-in-a-Row: Get five consecutive stones to win
- Tournament Rules: Special rules for competitive play
