Can you win a game that's actively working against you? Fading Five is a fast five-in-a-row game where nothing you build lasts - every piece you place starts fading away. Think fast, adapt faster, and outsmart the fade. 1-3 players, local or online, or solo against a bot. Free in your browser, no download or account needed.

How the fade works

Marks only age on your turns, so when you play matters as much as where. Three difficulty levels control how fast marks fade - from slow and strategic to fast and chaotic.

Ways to play

• 🌐 Online - share a room code or find a match. No sign-up needed.
• 🤖 Vs bot - three difficulty levels, always available.
• 🎮 Local - same device, pass and play.
• 👥 2 or 3 players - three-player mode with X, O, and △.

Game variants

• Classic - standard fading rules. Learn the mechanic, master the timing.
• Switch - colors rotate between players every few turns. The line your opponent was building? It's yours now.

Per-turn timer or chess clock. Bullet, blitz, rapid, or classic pace. Pannable, zoomable grid. Dark and light mode. Multiple languages. Works on any device with a browser.
