Connect Four Game - Human vs. AI

Beginner

In this project, we will use Python and the Pygame library to simulate a Connect Four game between an AI and a player, where the AI algorithm utilizes the Monte Carlo tree search concept and the difficulty coefficient determines its decision-making strategies.

PygamePython

Introduction

This project is a Python implementation of the classic Connect Four game where a player can compete against an AI. It employs the Pygame library for the game's interface and control. The AI's decision-making is based on the Monte Carlo tree search algorithm, and the difficulty level is adjustable, allowing players to challenge themselves with smarter AI opponents.

Key Concepts:

  • Utilizing Pygame for game development.
  • Implementing the Monte Carlo tree search algorithm for AI decision-making.
