The cells are so small that you sometimes select the wrong point. You need tiny fingers 😂 One star less because the game has a fixed board and doesn't allow choosing 9x9 or other types. Otherwise, it is the best Gomulka of all available.

Is this the caro game but disguised as wadi? What does even the game's name mean?

Garbage, you even have to watch an ad for undoing a mistake
★☆☆☆☆Matthew Garvey· Sep 20, 2023
I've been playing the game for 90 seconds, and I've experienced three ads in three different languages. Which makes it completely unplayable. This is just an ad revenue generating machine at the expense of the sanity of people who make the mistake of downloading this game.
★☆☆☆☆Danny Lim· Jun 26, 2020
The way to win is putting 5 pieces in a line not 6 pieces. Why do you think the game is called five pieces when translated?
