Go-moku like 4x4 abstract.
There are actually two different (but related) games called "Gomoku". The traditional Gomoku is a placement game that doesn't allow Quatri like movement but a hundred-year-old Western variant confusedly also named Gomoku does allow Quatri like movement (plus it seems diagonal moves). It seems one of the preferred version of the latter was a version played on a ten-by-ten board where each player gets ten pieces which would also be playable with a single piecepack (with ten Suns/Moons coins versus ten Arms/Crowns coins play on the "points" of a board made with Xiangqi-style rivers or use a tile from an extra piecepack or two dominoes to make a 10x10 board with "cells"). --TrevorLDavis
