The Conquest of Go

Post by Rowen »

New game for PC coming out in early access on 12-7-2020. Developer said it will run $14.99 and be available via Steam. Here's the link: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1264 ... est_of_Go/

Look's interesting with game mechanics that will entice people to give it a Go! (pun intended)

Just purchased this since its out in early access. The dev has had some great input based off the early release and is already working on fixes and taking community input into consideration. Could shape up into a great intro into the world of Go for friends who may be on the fence about playing.

Edit: I started the game to have a quick look around. First things I noticed, the music is very enjoyable. Started the tutorials because its been a while since I have actually played and to see how well it would instruct someone new to the game. So far its been presented very well. I really love the visual dictionary of Go terms, it's a nice touch.

Anyway, wanted to support the Developer and I don't feel my money is wasted. Its a very nice piece of software that I think will shape up into a very nice Go program for all users in time.

I’ve followed the developer’s (Wolfey Studios) thread about this on the OGS forum, they regularly posted updates and asked for wishes etc., beautiful screenshots and animation!
And I also immediately purchased the game because I like to support Go devs … but must admit that I haven't played it yet b/c I’d need to fire up my Windows VM for that :roll:
