Go Lanterns: Learn to Play Go

It's fine if you've never played Go before. In a quiet lantern-lit garden, you'll learn Go from the very beginning, one step at a time. ■ 9 hands-on lessons · Placing stones → liberties → capturing → atari → ko → eyes and life → territory and scoring → ending the game → tips for your first game · You don't just read explanations. You play on a small board, get praised when you're right, and are told why when you're wrong · Rules at a glance, available to review anytime ■ 430 daily Go problems · Capture in one move, escape from atari, capture with a ladder or net, and life and death (tsumego: killing and living), in 6 levels · Every problem has just one correct answer, and if you miss, you'll see how the opponent responds · A new problem of the day every day, with a streak record ■ Play against the computer · 9×9, 13×13, and 19×19 boards · 8 levels of opponents, from Firefly to Star Lantern. Win, and the lantern for the next level lights up · The opponent is made for people who are just learning (it is not a strong AI for experts) · Handicap games, automatic komi, undo and hints · Beginner rules: capture the dead stones before ending the game, and the stones left on the board are counted as they are · After each game, a short review points out missed ataris, risky groups, and groups with only one eye, right on the board ■ Play a friend · Play a friend anywhere with a single invite code. Send the code in any messenger and the game starts when they join · Play live or slowly, a few moves a day (your turn is shown on the title screen) · At the end you both agree on the dead stones and count. Rematch with colors swapped · Or pass and play: two players taking turns on one device · No matchmaking with strangers and no chat ■ Easy on the eyes · Wooden board and soft stones, large stones and large text · On the 19×19 board, you tap twice to place a stone, which prevents mis-taps · Everything except friend play (invite code) works without an internet connection Supports 한국어, English, 日本語, 繁體中文, and Deutsch. Ads and purchases: You may occasionally see an interstitial ad between games. Once you've used up your free hints and undos, you can choose to watch a rewarded ad to get more, only if you want to. You can buy hint and undo packs to use after the free ones, and the optional monthly Lantern Club subscription removes ads and gives unlimited hints and undos. It renews automatically every month, and you can cancel anytime in Google Play Subscriptions.
