Go: Board Game

- Place stones on the board’s intersections to expand influence and secure territory. - Surround opposing stones to remove their last liberties and capture them from the board. - Connect your stones to increase shared liberties and avoid creating isolated, weak groups. - Observe the ko rule to prevent immediate repetition of the previous board position. - Build frameworks in the opening, then invade or reduce your opponent’s areas to rebalance the board. - When both players pass, count territory plus captured stones; the higher total wins.
