Play Pente Online
Drop stones on the grid, aiming for five in a row—until the AI starts countering your moves and forcing captures. That simple black-and-white board hides some ruthless strategy.
Game Overview
Pente on MS-DOS is one of those games that looks simple at first—just drop your stones on the grid, try to get five in a row. But then you realize the AI is sneakier than it lets on, and suddenly you're sweating over every move. The capture mechanic changes everything—nothing feels better than trapping two of your opponent's pieces and watching them vanish.
It's got that perfect '90s vibe: no distractions, just crisp black-and-white graphics and the occasional satisfying click of a stone hitting the board. I lost way too many lunch breaks to this back in the day. The computer starts off friendly, but crank up the difficulty and it plays like a chess master who's had one too many coffees.
Still holds up if you ask me. Just don't blame me when you lose track of time.
Each game uses different controls, most DOS games use the keyboard arrows. Some will use the mouse , "Alt" ,"Enter" and "Space bar".
