Real-Life Connect Four Basketball Is a Total Board Game-Changer
This could very well be the next great carnival game.
Some enterprising guys in Australia have come up with a game in which you shoot a basketball into a series of hoops, in the hopes of getting four in a row, like Connect Four. The game is called, appropriately enough, four-in-a-row, and we especially like the Plinko feature that lets the ball bounce from one basket to the next, leaving you uncertain where it will fall. It adds a layer of unpredictability to the game.
Coming up with unorthodox games is a thing this summer. You can make a whole day of soap hockey before heading over for a rousing round of four in a row.
We really hope this starts a news trend. Real-life Battleship-soccer, Chutes and Ladders-football and Risk-tennis are all be sports we'd be willing to try.
