Yes, you read it right — we may have to add another Hasbro title to the Coming Soon list. Connect Four appears to be coming to Pogo. Don’t know what Connect Four is? It’s more or less Blooop with the Hasbro logo stuck on it. You can try out this Flash demo of the board game, if you need more explanation. Let’s hope that if Connect Four really does come to Pogo, it’ll be more entertaining than Blooop (and more entertaining than the plastic board game, though the sound of the pieces falling into the plastic grid really does bring back some great childhood memories).
As with Risk and Battleship, these titles are no more than a glimmer in a developer’s eye so don’t get your hopes up for a Spring (or even Summer) release. We’ll keep you posted, as always.
(Edited to add: This is not the Connect 4 Power Chips flash game that is currently available on the UK site.)
