The catalog in 3D
The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.
How it feels
A stripped-down, no-frills digital board for quietly plotting territory one stone at a time.

About
A Japanese exclusive Go game which was the third volume in the Simple 1500 Series. The game is played by two players who alternately place black and white stones on the vacant intersections of a grid of 19×19 lines. Once placed on the board, stones cannot be moved. If they are surrounded by the opponent's stones, they are captured and removed from the board. The object of the game is to surround a larger portion of the board than the opponent. When a game concludes, the controlled points are counted along with captured stones or your own stones (depending on the rule-set) and a predetermined compensation ("komi") to determine who has more points.
