Description:
Excited by the prospect of capturing enemies and gaining control of territories? Then you'll enjoy this ancient Asian board game of strategy and skill. Go originated in China more than 4,000 years ago and was perfected by the Japanese. Everyone from the working classes to royalty played Go, making it a popular national pastime. The object is to gain control by capturing enemy stones or movers. With our solid wood board (11" x 11-3/4") and black and white stones, Go is sure to get you going. Simple instructions for two players, and many challenging hours of fun.

Go is the ultimate game!
Go is the greatest game in the history of mankind, if you like chess, checkers, or any other game like that, then you will love this game. Be warned! It's not a game for the weak minded.

Ultimate Strategy Game!
Make sure to read all the other reviews. It is true: this is the ultimate in strategy games!!!
--Nick from Little Rock, AR
Wonderful Game
The rules are amongst the simplest of any game - 2 players take it in turns to place pieces on a 19x19 grid. Once placed they do not move unless captured (you capture pieces by completely surrounding them). Winner is the player with most territory + prisoners at the end. But you'll discover that from these simple rules comes the most wonderful game you've ever played. You'll wonder why it's not the most famous game in the west, and why you did not discover it earlier. As another review said, if you've ever enjoyed chess, checkers or othello then you'll love this. Also if you like wargames this is the ultimate strategic/territorial game.

GO for the pros...
This game is very easy to learn but very hard to master... If you have a passion to capture then try your hand at this game...
