#Five Wins

###A game for Software Architecture

The game is a project for or lecture "SA" – Software Architecture. The goal of the lecture is to implement a plugin interface and embed a persistence layer. The game is forked from de.htwg.se.

###The Rules: At first you decide if you want to play against the ai or a friend. Then you’re asked how big want the gamefield. We recommend a size between 15 and 19. In each round you always can place one stone. After that it's your opponents turn. The goal of this game is to get five stones in one row. Vertical, horizontal or diagonal, all is possible. Just without an edge.

###Several Informations: This game use the MVC-Architecture pattern. To improve our code and development process we used Sonar, Maven and Jenkins. For more informations about the skeleton look at the Readme from de.htwg.se. Before you start the Game you can choose which database and which plugins you want to use. You can set this up over dependency injection. For dependency injection we used google guice.

###Plugins You have the choice between 2 Plugins.

Plugin Name	Function
Turn Plugin	Every player has 2 turns in a row.
