Abstract

This Four in a Row 3D board game demonstrates the use of the Artificial Intelligence method Monte Carlo Tree Search with UCB (Upper Confidence Bounds) applied to trees (UCT in short). Four in a Row 3D is a two player abstract strategy game with perfect information. This implementation allows any combination of human players and artificial intelligence players as chosen from the options menu.

Rules

Two players place beads of their own color on a selected pole of their choice during their turn. The game is played in alternating the player's turn between the two players. The player controlling the red beads starts the game. Passing a turn is not allowed.
