Been playing Go Game – BadukPop for a couple months now. It’s basically an app that teaches you how to play the ancient board game of Go (also called Baduk or Weiqi). There’s a fun tutorial that walks you through the basics, and then you can sharpen your skills with daily brain-teasing Go problems. But the really fun part is playing against the different AI opponents – they’ve got bots ranging from total beginner to almost pro level, so there’s always a good challenge.
Here’s what you do: you can build up your own Go skills, compete against players around the world on the leaderboard, and even play correspondence games with friends. And it’s got tons of strategy and depth without being overwhelming. Took me a while to get the hang of it, but once you do, it’s super addicting.
Look, if you’re into strategy games and brain teasers, you’ll probably like this. It’s not perfect – the upgrades can take forever at higher levels and the ads can be annoying if you don’t pay. But overall it does the job and is worth checking out.
