It's interesting that the rule added to limit Black's offensive capabilities gets gamified to give White some pretty sneaky offensive capabilities of their own (I'm referring to trapping forbidden points).
Yeah, I didn't know until stumbling upon this tutorial that White could exploit Black's limitations. Even having known about Gomoku beforehand, the Renju rules were still difficult to wrap my head around.
