National Network Game

The National Network Game is played on a wooden board printed with a 5x5 grid. Each player has five pawns of the same colour. The game starts with a row of pawns in alternating colours on opposite sides of the board. Players alternate turns, moving one of their pieces one square at a time in any direction (horizontal, vertical, or diagonal.) The first player to manoeuver four pieces in a square or continuous straight line (in any direction) is the winner.
