What is Go?

Go is a strategy board game for two players. The rules fit on an iron-on patch, but the game is so deep that you can keep discovering new things for a lifetime.

1

Place a stone

Black and White take turns placing one stone on an empty point – on the lines, not in the squares. Once placed, stones don't move.

2

Surround to capture

A stone needs at least one free point next to it. Take away its last free point and it's captured and removed from the board.

3

Claim territory

Build walls to fence off areas of the board. At the end, whoever surrounds more space (plus captured stones) wins.
