GNU Go – Open source Go Game

From the “Free Games” dept.

I’ve been reading about Go recently. I actually purchased a beginner’s book called, “The Book of GO“. It’s a fascinating game which requires quite a bit of pattern recognition.

I also found an interesting open source project (Free as in Beer and Freedom) called GNU Go.

It would be interesting to get a string of Go champions and monitor them using a “think out loud” protocol. I’d love to understand their approach to the game.

BTW, GNU Go kicks my ass all the time.

If you are interested, Awari is also a cool game.
