How Four in a Row Works

• Connect your wallet and click Create Game to start a new match. Use the slider to set a stake between 0.25 – 10 XNT (default 1 XNT). The stake is sent to the game contract.
• A second player joins by clicking Join from the lobby, matching the same stake. The total pot is double the stake.
• Players take turns dropping a disc into one of the seven columns. Discs fall to the lowest empty cell in the chosen column.
• The first player to line up four of their own discs in a row — horizontally, vertically, or diagonally — wins.
• If the board fills up with no four-in-a-row, the game ends in a draw and both players are refunded.
• The winner receives the full pot minus a small 2% fee. On a draw both players are refunded minus the fee.
• If a game is abandoned or interrupted, funds can be reclaimed after 5 minutes via the Reclaim Funds button. A reduced 0.5% fee is applied to timeout reclaims.
• If a player quits or disconnects during a game, a 50% penalty is deducted from their refund and burned (permanently removed from circulation).

All transactions happen on the X1 blockchain. Make sure your wallet has enough XNT for the stake and transaction fees.
