I thought the animation on the main menu was sort of a clever way to earn a theme interpretation star.

Sadly a bit unapproachable due to the requirement for a matey and the assumption of prior knowledge of go. The introduction video was a good idea.

Interesting concept. I downloaded the desktop version since the web version was so tiny. I wish there was something showing which player's turn it is, and where the piece you selected can legally move. Also when I wasn't able to move any pieces adjacent to the enemy watchtower, even though there were open spaces. This game probably requires being good at Go to play properly, and I don't know how to play Go, so I was mostly confused, lol

You can't jump over borders created by enemy stones or move to enemy territory. But you can nuke checkers piece to break the chain and advance

I liked the idea but everything was so tiny on my screen, I had a hard time clicking on the right pieces! But I really liked the idea!
