Play Online Go

Go dates back over two thousand years. Two players face off on a square grid. They place black or white stones one by one. The goal aims at surrounding open spaces and capturing enemy stones. Simple rules hide deep strategy.

Each turn starts with a stone placement. Players try to lock territory by surrounding empty points. They watch enemy stones and plan next moves. Captured stones get removed from the board. Both sides agree there is no new ground. They count territory to find the winner.

New players learn the basics in minutes. The game needs careful thinking at each move. Each match delivers a mental workout. Players return to test fresh tactics.
