GiiKER Smart Four, 3D AI-Powered 4 in a Row Game, Strategy Board Games with Integrated Referee for 1-2 Players, Travel Games for Ages 6-12 and up, Birthday Gift for Kids Family Game Night

We love our GiiKER Smart Four! It takes the old 4-in-a-row game and makes it way more fun with the 3D design and built-in AI. It really gets your brain working, and my older kids enjoy the challenge. The AI opponent is surprisingly good, and it keeps score too, which is a nice bonus. It can be a bit tricky to learn at first, especially for younger kids, but once you get the hang of it, it’s super addictive. Great for family game nights!

I have purchased 3 of these games. We enjoyed the one I bought our daughters family so much, we got one for my mother and ourselves. We play mostly on the head to head setting. Because this connect four is played in 3 dimension it adds a level of unexpected fun and difficult in blocking your opponents game. If you can figure out a few algorithms you will be beating your opponents constantly. Just be sure to let your wife win sometimes or the couch could become your new bed! Not comfortable at my age but the game is really fun.

My wife and I love this game. We play it often and playing it by yourself is fun to. The computer is quite hard to beat but not impossible.

Amazing game! AI is harder than you'd think.

Got it for my cousins husband out of obligation. He liked it so that’s cool. Not even sure what it is honestly. But a good Christmas present for someone who’s gpa is higher than average. Which mine is not

I love Connect4, and this is the logical continuation of the game idea. The game board is solid even if somewhat with a toy design. Batteries (2x AA) are not included. The clever part is fairly hidden and, what the maker calls AI, it's a clever tracking of game pieces for single player mode and as a referee when two humans play against each other.The game pieces are straightforward, and for the game board to know where which and how many pieces are, one must press the piece momentarily down onto the board to activate the switch. That's pretty easy, but the pieces nest somewhat and if you're not careful you may knock neighboring stacks over. The trouble with that is trying to remember how they were set to restore the visual cues. The board will not know if you take a stack and rearrange it. There is no app mode that could show the stacks the board kept track of.The easy level is already not child's play. A 6+ age recommendation is probably optimistic, and even adults will spend some time getting used to the 3D game play. The board tries its best to guide the users. Columns are color coded, and the row is indicated by an LED indicator. The latter lights up in the color of the respective column and that makes it possible to pinpoint a particular sport with only five LEDs.The game does not have internet connectivity or a smartphone app. The algorithms are very capable to put up a good game, but I sure would put the term 'AI' in the category of sales puffery. This is really unnecessary as the electronics are good.Overall a great game. The game pieces could be a bit more stable, but that's about the only thing I can think of for things not great. Well, that and the batteries not being included. There is an optional case ($17) if you don't want to use the sturdy box.

I recently bought this game console for my almost 7-year-old son, and it’s an expanded version of the classic electric tic-tac-toe. It’s fantastic for developing spatial awareness and imagination. You can play one-on-one against a robot opponent with three difficulty levels or go head-to-head with another player. It’s a wonderfully entertaining game that kids and adults alike can enjoy together. I stumbled upon this while looking for a traditional electric tic-tac-toe game, and it truly feels like a hidden gem!

Giiker Smart 4 is a clever version of 4-in-a-row games but with a twist…you can get it horizontally, diagonally, vertically OR (the super tricky way) stair-stepped! I’ve only played another person a handful of times but have played the AI MANY MANY times and have yet to beat it! Let me tell you, that bot is ruthless and is now my sworn enemy! I vow to beat it one day! As far as quality, it’s top notch like all Giiker games (I have several of them). It looks nice and I like the fact there is built in referee…which comes in handy especially playing another human as sometimes the winner doesn’t realize they’ve won right away but the ref lets you know. It’s complex but fun and really makes you think and strategize. It’s rather pricey but I feel like it’s a good value since the quality is nice AND you can play another human or the AI. I bought a case from Amazon for it so it’s easier to bring along with us.
