Four-in-a-Row is a “solved” game. Frontier LLMs still can’t play it reliably. 📢 We just launched a new Game Arena leaderboard to test how models reason step-by-step, maintain a mental board and plan moves - no minimax, no game-tree shortcuts.

A Kaggle "Game Arena Four in a Row Leaderboard" comparing 10 AI models. The table ranks models by (Internal) Elo, Average Output Tokens, and Average Inference Cost.

Top Performer: Gemini 3 Pro Preview (477 Elo, 11.90¢ per turn).

Runner Up: GPT-5.2 (450 Elo, 14.27¢ per turn).

Mid-Range: o3 (313 Elo), Grok 4 (313 Elo), and Gemini 3 Flash Preview (312 Elo).

Efficiency Leader: DeepSeek V3.2 ranks 10th (0 Elo) but features the lowest cost at 0.33¢ per turn.

The footer notes that ratings use the Bradley-Terry algorithm based on 80 games per model pair.
