About this game

Go Simulator is a Computer adaptation of the classic oriental strategic board game : the GO.

The Game is designed as a initiation to the go : it includes a complete tutorial to learn the basic rules of GO. Using the numerous available options, you can custom the game to adapt the difficulty : size of the board (from 9x9 to 19x19 lines), IA level (1 to 20), handicap (0 to 29 stones on the board before the game starts).... You can play against the computer or a friend, and even watch the IA plays against itself... IA is pretty impressive : it is a good challenger for beginners and experienced players

Graphics are fine, using the VGA Hi-Resolution mode (640x480 16 colors) but sound is almost absent : only a blip of the buzzer when stones are captured.
