Gomoku | Classic retro game for the Commodore PET Computer (1979)

GOMOKU pits you against the PET in a game of Gomoku in which you and your opponent take turns placing stones on the board, trying to form an unbroken line of five stones. You can choose whether the playstyle of the AI is aggressive, defensive, or balanced. I found all three styles fairly easy to beat although when the PET plays defensively, you have to plan ahead a little more. The PET requires some time to consider its moves. It feels uncomfortably slow; I found myself resorting to warp mode in Vice when playtesting this one.
