## What is EASY GO RANKA?

Place stones on a triangular grid and surround your opponent's pieces to capture them — simple to learn, surprisingly deep to master.

RANKA is the official app version of a real tabletop game from board game studio TANSAN. Like Go, you claim territory and capture enemy stones, but on a unique triangular grid that changes how every surround plays out. The rules are simple enough to pick up in minutes.

FEATURES
- Two rule sets: Classic (claim territory) and Tactical (capture pieces)
- CPU battles across 7 levels, from beginner to master. Clear level 7 in both rule sets to unlock a hidden board theme
- Pass-and-play for two people sharing one device
- Online play: challenge a friend with a room code, or jump into random matchmaking
- Built-in tutorial that walks you through every rule step by step
- Match history and stats, including win streaks
- Game Center achievements
- Available in 9 languages

FAIR MONETIZATION
RANKA is free to play. You'll see occasional ads, such as after a match ends. A small one-time purchase removes all ads for good and unlocks a bonus board theme — no subscriptions, no repeat charges.

RANKA is based on a physical board game designed by TANSAN, a board game studio in Japan. Whether you want a quick match or a long, thoughtful game, play at your own pace.
