What it does
Play Gomoku free against a real engine or a friend. No account, no download. Climb an eighteen-rung ladder from Ninth Grade to Ninth Dan. Xiangqi and Go are next.
Play gomoku free in your browser — no account, no download. Battle the AI, invite a friend, or get matched with a real player. Climb the 18-rank ladder.
Start with Gomoku in five minutes. Stay for a few thousand years of strategy across six boards. Open the board below and make a move — nothing to install, nothing to sign up for. Xiangqi, Go, Reversi, Chess and Tsumego are all live now. Your progress is saved to this browser for 180 days. Attach an email later if you want to keep it. Black moves first. Get five in an unbroken line — horizontal, vertical or diagonal. Each one teaches a different way of thinking — and every one is playable right now, no account required. Two colours, one grid, five in a row. The rules fit in a sentence; the tactics do not. Best entry point if you have never touched a Chinese board game. A river cuts the board…from yiboardgame.com

Play abstract strategy board games online with friends or against bots2025 · abstractboardgames.com · ▲180Thought I would post in celebration of 1 year of my website being online. I've been working on it on and off and currently the website allows users to play Hex, Tumbleweed, Amazons, and Connect 6 against friends or against practice bots. I've been a long time player of some of these games and I felt for a long time that the world could use a few more popular abstract strategy games compared to Chess or Go. If you try it, let me know what you think. I'm always looking for new games or new features to add :)

Voronoi GoAug 2026 · voronoigo.com · ▲158I posted once before but wanted to share again because a lot has changed. There's now a fairly strong bot to play against (contributed by a community member) and also correspondence games. The combination of these things helps a bit in finding people to play against.

Clipto MCP▲655Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy.
