3 gewinnt!

Description

3 gewinnt! ("3 wins") is a children's game similar to Connect Four. Players take turns dropping checkers into a seven-by-six grid (the "cheese"), with the intention to make a three-in-a-row. Each checker shows a mouse: either boy or girl, and either red, green or blue. A three-in-a-row consists of three boys, three girls, or three mice in the same color. Each player has a hand of two checkers, and chooses which one to use each turn. When a player creates a three-in-a-row, he gains a piece of cheese. Initially, these have one hole. When the pieces of cheese with a single hole run out, pieces with two holes are awarded, and when those run out, pieces with three holes are awarded. The game ends when all the cheese has been claimed, or when the grid has been filled completely. The player with the most holes in his pieces of cheese wins.
