There are 2 connect 4 games that I've seen on this site. One of them does allow you to remove the existing pieces (by clicking on them) if you clicked on the wrong color by mistake.
I think you might be talking about my template. I just added the ability to add pictures by simply dragging and dropping image files onto the slide and a standard "fullscreen" sized version.Please check it out here.http://www.waygook.org/index.php/topic,72805.msg450514.html#msg450514

Though the question slides in the question template are broken in more ways than one: hyperlink on the check mark leads the ppt to end the presentation; to get the answer I need to press right key rather than just click on the screen; etc, etc. It's not difficult to fix this, but I'm surprised no one brought up these problems when you posted it.Anyways, thanks for sharing.
Because they aren't problems, those are by design. It was a way to get around the PowerPoint 2010 reset glitch. If you play the game from the start it and you press the check mark it will work perfectly fine. However, if you start from the question slide, which you wouldn't do when playing the game with the students, it will simply close.

Another question - when I get to the question slide, I can see the question, but when I click on the screen, no answer pops up. Instead, I have to press right key on the keyboard to see it. Is this also by design?PS.Some people have noted (and my recently posted pirates game seems to confirm this via lacking any resetting issues) that resetting manifests itself only if the question slides have too many hyperlinks/triggers. Your question slides don't seem to have too many of those, was resetting still an issue then?
In hindsight, I realized it would be much easier to have a template like the one maximmm mentioned, and therefore have the ability to just have the pieces disappear upon a click. I re-edited the template, so now if you click a red or a blue piece it will disappear and you can play a different color. Now we can make infinite mistakes!
