Gomoku ReviewGood stuff! - Version: 1.4.3, 3/25/2005 03:11AM PST

Nice clean graphics, competent AI (I can beat the toughest level about 2/3 of the time), but a bit bare-bones in features. Because the computer places its move immediately after my turn, sometimes it's hard to see where the computer played its move. Perhaps a blinking stone and/or a menu option to see the opponent's last move would be nice.

I could go on and on with feature requests, but this freeware game gets the basic things right. In other words, I like it a lot. :)

It would be great if someone could help me with the Japanese localization. If you think you could translate at least the application interface (or even the Read Me), please let me know (e-mail address is in the Read Me file). I'll send you the necessary text files.
