Take on the World at Connect 4
If you think you're a bit tasty at Connect 4 then check out Link4 Online and test your skills against other players from around the planet.
It's very easy to get into Link4 Online, and you don't even need a user account if you don't want one. Simply launch the app, hit the 'Play Link4' button and an online opponent will be found for you. This usually takes no more than a few seconds and then you're playing!
The games in Link4 Online are well presented, accompanied by an upbeat melodic soundtrack and realistic sound effects. There's plenty you can do in the in-game menu, including chatting with your opponent, viewing your stats, and altering various graphic and sound settings.
It's the community aspect of Link4 Online that really makes this game stand out. Besides playing against other humans, you can join the chatroom and natter away to other users around the World about Connect 4, or just life in general.
On the downside, the adverts in the game are very annoying and you have to put up with them every time you start a new game. Also, the user interface in Link4 Online is a little messy, and it takes a while to figure out how to start and leave games.
Overall though, Link4 Online offers a great way for Connect 4-aholics to test themselves against other players.

Used to be great.
MoreUpdates have ruined this game. Ads are annoying and looong. I get disconnected all the time. App can't connect to the game server half the time. And now, as more people have abandoned this app, there are not enough opponents to play against so you get paired up against people with totally different skill levels. Fortunately I discovered another Connect 4 app called 'Construct 4' which is great. Hope that helps....
Pros:
Lots of players means there used to always be someone of a similar skill level to play against.
Cons:
Few players left means you often get matched up against someone who is way better or way worse.
App can't connect to servers for days at a time.
App disconnects from server mid-game and it counts as a loss for you.

Bad Servers.
MoreIts a fun game when it works. It's almost impossible to play because it won't connect. Just keeps saying that there aren't any servers. The "Friends" idea was a great idea. too bad you can't actually challenge anyone.
Pros:
Fun game, easy to play, hard to master. New "Friends" list is a great addition.
Cons:
Can't connect to servers, so you basically can't play. Can't challenge anyone on your friends list like it leads you to believe you can do.
