Player A (Black) and Player B (White) take turns playing.
Player A: |0⟩, |+⟩ player B: |1⟩, |-⟩
Player A must place a stone in the first turn.
Subsequent Turns:
On each turn, a player may choose to:
Place a stone with their allowed quantum state.
or
Measure unmeasured stones using Standard/Hadamard basis.
After completing one action (placing or measuring), the turn immediately passes to the next player.
Winning Condition:
After a measurement, if a player has five stones of the same color connected consecutively in a straight line (horizontally, vertically, or diagonally), they win the game.

I grew up playing piano, violin, and singing in choir. I was the vocal in my high school rock band. In college, I joined a digital music production club and once wrote (and sold) a song for the College of Science. I also wrote our department's graduation song. Lately, I’ve stepped away from strings, listening more to what my body/PT needs.
Sometimes, I write songs inspired by research that moves me something elegant or quietly brilliant.
If our work shares that spark, maybe we can shape it into music together. Preferred software: Logic Pro, GarageBand, and REAPER.
