4 in a Blow

4 in a Blow builds on Connect 4 by adding power-ups. Because the core rules are already familiar, you can dive straight into play. Every turn charges your power meter — spend it to block a column, swap two tokens, remove a token, or make two drops in a row. One balancing rule keeps things fair: no power can win the game on its own. Powers can only set up or protect a victory, so the winning move must always be a standard drop. Choose Classic for pure Connect 4 against AI or a friend, Blast for the full power-up experience, or Wakie for a fast 90-second score-attack mode featuring rotating powers and a Turbo Time finale. Simple to learn, tough to predict.
