Sequence
Games like Sequence
Sequence mixes the luck of the draw with five-in-a-row strategy. If that is what you love, start with the Sequence variants you can play free here, then try five other games with the same feel.
Sequence variants you can play free
- Sequence No Jack: no wild jacks, so nothing can be removed and every block is permanent.
- Sequence Catch: three rabbits hide on the board, and only five in a row through a rabbit you hold wins.
- Sequence Block: one card rank is walled off each game, so you route around eight blocked spaces.
- Daily Challenge: a new free challenge every weekday, with a leaderboard and coin prizes for the top three.
Five games like Sequence
Gomoku
The original five-in-a-row game, played with stones on a Go board. There are no cards, so every move is pure strategy. Good practice for spotting double threats in Sequence.
Pente
Five in a row with captures: bracket two of your opponent's stones and you remove them, a lot like playing a one-eyed jack. You can also win by making five captures.
Connect Four
Four in a row on an upright grid where pieces drop to the lowest open slot. Quick, simple and great with kids, and the same habit of blocking before you build.
Qwirkle
Draw tiles and place them in lines that share a colour or a shape. Like Sequence, your hand decides what you can do, and the board fills up in ways nobody planned.
Rummikub
A tile game of runs and sets. It shares Sequence's mix of a random draw and careful hand management, and it plays well with families and mixed ages.
What makes Sequence different
- Cards drive the board. Each card matches two spaces, so you always choose between them.
- Jacks change everything. Wild placements and chip removals mean no line is ever safe.
- Teams. Up to 12 players can play in two or three teams, see rules by number of players.
