But it crashes and you lose game. Please fix! ### 1/5 — Crashed *2016-03-12, version 1.2.1* Midway through my first game it crashed and lost the game board. App deleted ### 1/5 — Crashed! *2016-03-10, version 1.2.1* Played two games, crashed in the middle of both games on my iPhone 6s ### 1/5 — Light GO *2016-03-09, version 1.2.1* Why are there no instructions on how to play? That's a must, surely! ### 1/5 — Crashes all the time *2016-02-09, version 1.2.1* This thing can't handle a game, it just keeps on crashing!! ### 1/5 — 0/10 *2016-01-31, version 1.2.1* Terrible, game was really bad, it was without quality and instructions. ### 1/5 — Useless *2016-01-28, version 1.2.1* There are no instructions! How can anyone possibly put a game online with such a glaring omission? Deleted. ### 1/5 — Huge disadvantage *2015-12-29, version 1.2.1* First of all, your ALWAYS black. Also, how is the mode easy, easy?! No rules, no tips, how would you improve your game?? ### 1/5 — Skipped *2015-12-16, version 1.2.1* Can only play 13x13. Look else where for a full size go experience. ### 1/5 — Opens app center and web browser with ads *2015-10-02, version 1.2.1* Would not recommend ### 1/5 — Worst Game Ever ! *2015-05-27, version 1.2.1* Someone trying to make. Quick buck game is horrific ### 1/5 — WORST GAME EVER😡😡😡👿👿👿😾👺👎👇 *2015-05-24, version 1.2.1* No rules, makes up own rules, never plays right, cheats, and is the greatest wasted of my time!!! ### 2/5 — Computer plays by different rules *2015-03-17, version 1.2.1* The computer player has a large advantage because it does not have to follow the same rules as I do ### 2/5 — Unfortunately An Incomplete Go App *2015-01-11, version 1.2.1* Someone asked about the rules. If they mean how to play Go then its not a valid complaint. People must learn Go outside of the app. Bigger problem is that the app does not offer any end game calculations. Too few options. Crashes often. ### 1/5 — Where are the rules??? *2014-12-31, version 1.2.1* Too hard to self teach, so give me some game rules!!! Frustrating and maddening!! ### 1/5 — Horrible *2014-11-28, version 1.2.1* The app makes up its own rules ### 2/5 — Too difficult *2014-06-18, version 1.1.9* I am a beginner Go player. I play on Easy and find it way to difficult to play. I switched to Medium to see the difference and there was not any. The game just took a little longer to play. Too frustrating and no guides to help you learn and improve ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — poor app *2022-10-12, version 1.2.3* Not well made ### 1/5 — No tutor *2019-12-15, version 1.2.2* Not able to finf help ### 1/5 — The computer made an illegal move *2017-10-11, version 1.2.1* It's unplayable if the computer can make an illegal move, which it did for me. ### 1/5 — No Korean *2017-02-25, version 1.2.1* I am triggered there isn't korean ### 1/5 — Define "EASY" *2016-06-07, version 1.2.1* The computer player always makes the perfect move, he always starts first, does not ever place poor placement. If you are trying to learn the game as a pass time, don't use this app. Have never been more frustrated at a game that defines its "Easy" mode as unbeatable to the average user. ### 1/5 — Crashes within 1 minute of each startup *2016-03-25, version 1.2.1* I am running updated iOS on an iPhones 6s plus. This game should work. Complete waste of a download ### 1/5 — Crashed *2016-03-15, version 1.2.1* Crashed on first two games on iPad Air 2 ### 1/5 — Don't bother *2016-03-14, version 1.2.1* Ugly design, crashes all the time. Don't bother. ### 1/5 — Buggy *2016-03-13, version 1.2.1* Crashed on first 2 games so deleted ### 1/5 — Poor *2016-03-12, version 1.2.1* No instructions. Crashes mid-game ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Federal *2018-06-01, version 1.2.2* tzar day ur ### 5/5 — Good *2014-04-30, version 1.1.8* Great smooth game! ### 5/5 — Awesome *2014-04-13, version 1.1.7* Thanks for the game ### 5/5 — Great App! *2014-01-11, version 1.1.7* Perfect app for both beginners at Go and veterans! The computer is hard, but not impossible! 5 stars! ### 5/5 — Great app! *2013-12-09, version 1.1.6* Works great! I think it's really time to call a graphic designer and make the game look modern and sleek! Please look into that! It looks very outdated even if it is a great game! (: ### 4/5 — It’s brutal *2019-09-19, version 1.2.2* So putting aside the poor design, poor UI, etc etc, variable level of working functionality, I was looking for a working GO computer player. And I can honestly say that the AI on easy is brutal. I’m a beginner, so through brute force I’ve gained some understanding of the game and how it plays. I read articles online on how to play so instructions aren’t required. I’m easy mode, so the main down side is that the computer doesn’t make any mistakes. As far as I can tell. God forbid how it plays on harder levels. It’s perhaps at this point that some strategic insight or a teacher is needed. ### 4/5 — Doesn't crash, works for me *2016-08-30, version 1.2.1* I've been pretty happy with this program. I've had no crashing problems. I MUCH prefer the confirmation mechanism over how other Go games work. The AI is tactically way better than I am, but I have found some patterns were I can beat it consistently. For a beginner learning life and death patterns, it seems fine. It would be nice if one could set handicaps. ### 4/5 — Great *2013-01-26, version 1.0.9* Exactly what you need. No problems to speak of. Only complaint is the computer is quite challenging for a new player like myself. Needs an easier setting than easy. ### 4/5 — Bugs *2012-08-26, version 1.0.5* Along with the computer mode bug in two player mode when both players pass the same bug happens ### 4/5 — It is free! *2012-05-17, version 1.0* It is go, it plays, and I like it. It is the game and the only free app I can find to play go for free. Other apps may have better ai and more features, but you can't beat the price. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
