Best gomoku app on the app store, but was a bit disappointed – BlackStone Gomoku Review

I can beat this game every single time on very hard, going second, and without forbidden rules. It misses obvious attacks and does not even try to figure out my attacks. But I guess that's the limit on the iPad's tiny processor. Overall, it has a nice interface and it knows the rules (unlike other apps I've found). Some features that would make it better are timers (that measure the total time and not for each move), the option to use the rule of swap, and more variation for the "forbidden rules" option (e.g. Renju, Caro, Omok, Standard, Freestyle, etc.).
