TBH, to me this looks like some poor “jumping the bandwagon” by using a name for Go that has been made famous by the recent documentary “The Surrounding Game”. Also, shortlink service … where we don't know where it leads to? And missing images? Uhm, thanks, but I will decline. |

The only difference from the title of the movie is using a different character (Japanese variant?) for 围 (clever way of avoiding copyright violation?).
