Connect Four, grown up: line up four chips and the winner gets exactly what they were promised.
Foreplay In A Row reskins the familiar four-in-a-row connect game as a couples' foreplay tracker: 42 color-coded chips (traditionally pink for her, blue/white for him) drop into a 7x6 grid, and whichever four chips line up become the night's to-do list, acted out by the player who lost the round. It's a smart format because it removes the awkwardness of picking activities cold — the game picks for you, and the strategy layer (do you play offense or try to block your partner's line?) keeps it more engaging than a straight dice or card game. Each side's chip set is themed to a different kind of act, so there's a built-in his-and-hers balance, and the brand notes players can swap out any chip they're not comfortable with, which is a thoughtful nod to consent and personalization. Setup is fast, rounds are short, and there's no reading required mid-play once you know your chips. On the downside, several listings for this title show inconsistent stock — it's been discontinued and relisted more than once, and the board itself is fairly basic plastic, not something built for years of rough handling. Still, for a game night that can escalate on its own terms, this is one of the more clever formats we've seen in the category, especially for couples who like a little competition mixed into their intimacy.
