## Description

This extension lets you enjoy Gomoku with options for human vs. computer and human vs. human play. It supports play with friends via iMessage, runs as a universal app on iPhone, iPad and iPod, and offers five AI difficulty levels for a varied challenge.

## Review summary

Reviewers largely praise the Gomoku∙5 app for its strong AI and overall playability, with the CPU being described as very challenging. A few users value features like local multiplayer and the game's addictive nature. Common complaints include excessive ads after matches, loading delays when passing between devices, and perceptions that the Renju rule purchase does not differ from the base version. Some users also want a basic tutorial, and others wish for weaker AI options and larger grid sizes (9x9 or 13x13).

### Pros

- Very challenging CPU/AI that provides a strong strategic challenge.
