About this game

★ Top Developer (awarded 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2015) ★
Google Play's strongest Go/Baduk program! To coincide with the AlphaGo - Sedol match, AI Factory has released a substantially updated product. This new version has been 3 years in preparation and improves the top play strength by 10 grades from 8 kyu to 3 dan. This is based on the new Aya program, which was the winner of the KGS World Computer Go Championship November 2014 and EGC Computer Go Tournament 2015. It is consequently a substantially bigger program, but offers much more.

With its rich strategy and simple rules, the ancient game of Go (Wei-chi/Baduk) is widely regarded as the ultimate thinking game. This product will allow you to learn and master this game!

- Full 9x9, 13x13 games (19x19 limited to 180 moves. Paid version allows whole game)
- 10 Difficulty levels from 18 Kyu to 3 Dan
- Aya Go Engine (International Gold Medallist)
- 2 Player Hotseat
- Go Rules, Handicaps. Chinese and Japanese rules supported.
- Hints at 1 Dan level to help you develop.
- Help includes a walk-through and links to teaching resources.
- Designed for both Tablet and Phone

Ratings and reviews

It plays a fine game on small boards, but on 19x19 the play is halted after 180 moves. Other AI factory games give you the full game but show ads in between. Why not this one? It's a thoroughly unsatisfying experience. Just skip this and buy the pro version. Or Crazy Stone, which is surprisingly affordable on Android. Also, the interface is difficult to use accurately; your finger is always in the way of the piece you're placing and the point you're placing it on.

Fantastic app for playing Go against a range of skill levels. Undo/redo functionality is a great learning tool for playing out scenarios multiple times, or for reviewing the game after. It took me a year to decide to buy the paid version, which was very worth it. Additional functionality I would appreciate: - Some cosmetic options (e.g. dark mode) - Better undo/redo navigation: button to move, say, 10 moves forward/backward - Saved game files for later review in-app or elsewhere

A good game but very limited. A lot of potential in the app but the developer has a clear goal. I've played a few different games now from this developer and they all seem to be very similar the ads in the game are not bad at all. Only local multiplayer. Nothing online. The pace of the opponent seems to be slow and the stone don't always appear where they're supposed to when you place them. The app also Boggs down my phone and laggs for several seconds at a time. This can be very frustrating.
