I found this game on some German download page. The archive, containing only the executable, is obviously a rudiment. The help file is missing, and while you should be able to choose the right and left coins out of ten designs each, this doesn't work. But even in its reduced state this is an elegant little game. The graphics make good use of the Windows palette, and though I'm not a big fan of drag-n-drop, I like the way the pieces are elevated to their little platforms in the corners, waiting patiently for you to drag them to the column of your choice.

It is fitting that the first Thai game in my gallery should be a Connect Four, since Connect Four is quite a popular game there, especially bar girls like to play it with their patrons, as seen in this photo by Michael Janich, showing a game of Connect Four played in a beer bar in Pattaya.
