Game of Go Pack Summary

Game of Go Pack by Matthew Macfadyen

Go is a phenomenal game from Japan. It is believed that there are more possible game variations than atoms in the visible universe. It has been hugely popular in the East for centuries, and is second only to Chinese Chess as the most popular game in the world. Now you can learn to play and win with The Go Pack. Go must be one of the most testing 'easy' games in the world. Each player has a pot of black or white counters which are used to surround territory on the playing board. The object of the game is to capture as much territory as possible. There are no different pieces with complicated moves, no involved rules - you could learn the whole game in minutes and then spend the rest of your life trying to master it! This pack provides everything the new player needs to know. There is a full introduction to basic play and then an explanation of the tips and tricks known only to the expert. Everything is fully explained with the aid of ample clear diagrams. The book ends with some valuable instruction about advanced play. This pack will help turn the raw beginner into a Go player to be feared.
