Bens Simple GO
A downloadable game for Windows and Linux
Hi there,
This game is a straightforward yet authentic version of GO, inspired by the ancient board game that originated in China over 2,500 years ago. GO is renowned for its timeless elegance and depth, making it one of the most strategic and intellectually rewarding games ever created.
What sets GO apart is its limitless possibilities. Every match unfolds differently, offering countless choices to craft and adapt your strategy. It’s a game of profound strategy but also one that encourages mindfulness and relaxation.
Personally, I’ve cherished playing GO with a close friend—it’s a fantastic way to connect and challenge each other. While this digital version captures the essence of the game, I wholeheartedly recommend experiencing GO on a real board with a friend. The tactile nature and shared focus make it an unparalleled experience.
I created this simple-looking game as part of a personal coding challenge to test myself by implementing the intricate rules and scoring system of GO. It’s a passion project, and I’m thrilled to share it with you.
If you decide to give it a try, I’d love to hear your feedback! And don’t forget to grab a friend and enjoy a real-life session of GO—it’s truly worth it.
Thanks for your time, and happy playing!
