Master the Fight, Not Puzzles. Tsumego Reimagined for the AI Era. Traditional tsumego is essential, but it often fails to prepare players for the chaos of real games. Powered by AI, "Go: The Infinite Path" bridges this gap, delivering puzzles that mirror the battles you face in real games. We’ve redefined tsumego with 3 key innovations: 1. Whole-Board Tsumego Traditional tsumego focuses on internal eye spaces, ignoring the influence of surrounding stones and hidden potential. In real games, nearby stones often dictate the outcome of a situation. Our app offers tsumego problems grounded in whole board contexts, teaching you to analyze the entire board, not just localized positions. 2. Early Moves Shape the Battle Tsumego typically emphasizes the final stage of a fight, where eyes are either forming or being destroyed. But what about the earlier stages, when conflicts are just beginning to take shape? Mastery in early and middle stage of a fight often determines the course of the fight. Our app challenges you with battles across all stages, sharpening your tesuji and tactics from the beginning. 3. Shape Evaluation Skills Traditional tsumego clearly defines objectives—kill or survive—leaving little room to develop judgment. In real games, however, players must evaluate positions and predict outcomes before acting. In "Go: The Infinite Path", objectives are not pre-defined. You'll learn to assess statuses, enabling you to make decisions with confidence in real games. Sound familiar? • Hesitant to start fights and play too defensively? • Struggling to apply isolated tsumego knowledge in a real game? • Want to sharpen your fighting instincts and tactical skills? Key Features: • 15,000+ Free Whole-Board Puzzles: One of the largest and most unique. • Responsive AI: AI reacts intelligently to every move you make. • Powerful Analysis Tools: An automatic tsumego solver and a life-and-death analyzer for regular games. • All Levels Welcome: From beginner-friendly tutorials to 9D+ problems. "Go: The Infinite Path" isn’t just a tsumego app—it’s your full combat-skill dojo. Start your journey today!
