Same Four is a two-player board game similar to tic-tac-toe. During the game, the two players take turns handing each other game pieces, which the receiving player then freely places on the 4×4 board during their turn. The goal is to be the first to create a row, column, or diagonal containing four pieces with the same property (for example, shape, colour, size, or hole pattern) in a line. If the board fills up without either player achieving this, the game ends in a draw.
