Awesome! – Champion Go -Crazy Stone- Review

The gameplay is challenging at every level and the moves of this app are in every way superb. The result is a real go game, without errors and fluke moves. At the weaker levels the engine is a bit more conservative and chooses defensive moves at times. At higher levels the engine shows proficiency in life and death struggles, attack and defense and moyo development. It can also win a ko battle. - Medals can be won in a separate mode, in which taking back is restricted to the last move (this is necessary to correct misplacement). - As a wish, I'd like the game records to include not just the engine's level and number of moves, but also the (estimated) end score. This would make looking up older games easier. - Also, it would be a service to beginners to include the rank ( in kyu or dan) of the engine's strength. I estimate level 4 to be around 1 dan on 13x13, which I can occasionally beat without handicap or komi. - Kudos for this marvel of modern computer power. Awesome to play against. - I haven't tried online games, because it requires in-game purchases. A pity, because there are enough free alternatives.
