KOMBOM

How to Play Kombom

• Two players: goes first, then , played on a 4x4 grid.
• On each turn, a player takes two actions, in either order:
  • Place their symbol on an empty square.
  • Invert an opponent's symbol into your own.
• Get 4 in a row — horizontal, vertical, or diagonal — to win. You can win mid-turn after just placing or inverting.
• The 1st move is a half-move: only place (no opponent symbol exists yet).
• The last move once the board is full is also a half-move: only invert.
• If no one wins after the last move, the game is a draw.
