The game of PAH-TUM is played on a board of 7x7 squares. Like it's distant relatives Renju, Pente, Gomoku, Naughts and Crosses, and Tic-Tac-Toe, players alternate in an attempt to form collections of markers which score points.
Many online pages state that the game dates back to Mesopotamia and Assyria 3800 years ago. However, in reality, there does not seem to be any source older than the 2005 online page.
