ANCIENT STRATEGY GAME FROM CHINA. Invented in China more than 2,500 years ago, the game of Go is believed to be the oldest board game continuously played to the present day. In China, it is known as Weiqi. Played by two players, with the aim to surround more territory than your opponent, Go is an abstract strategy board game and arguably one of the most complex games in the world. Introduce your kids to this mythical game. Perfect for kids 6 and up with endless educational and social benefits.
HIGH QUALITY GO GAME BOARD & PIECES. With a board size of only 29 x 29 x 1.3 centimeters, our Go game is small enough to be portable. It includes instructions and a pouch to hold all its pieces. Referred to as stones, there are 180 black and 180 white pieces made of hard quality and well weighted plastic. The board features the standard 19 x 19 board layout and is made of beautifully finished wood. Unbreakable, it can take the knocks, drops and bumps of the roughest kids.
COMPLEX YET SIMPLE. The game of Go is focused more upon territory control and less about capturing your opponent’s pieces. With 150-250 possible moves on any turn, Go offers players more strategic variations than any other game known. Despite its complexity Go is surprisingly easy to learn with two simple rules: 1. Every piece alive on the board must have at least one open point next to it, and 2. Players can not move backwards to return the game to its previous state.
PROMOTES PROBLEM SOLVING & MENTAL EXERCISE. As one of the most complex games known, Go is a great way to expose young children to complex strategy and problem solving. It helps expand young minds and prepares children for more challenging problems at school and in life as they grow. Go provides a good foundation for developing decision making kills and helps train the brains of young children.
EDUCATIONAL & SOCIAL EXPERIENCE. Go is also an excellent game for your children to interact with their peers, follow rules and face competition. Kids can learn fair play and develop competitive skills. This helps builds confidence in your kids as they learn to master one of the most complex games in the world.
