Not great – Igowin HD Review

The AI seems very good but there are a number of minor annoying things that make playing Go with iGowin more frustrating than fun. - There is no landscape mode. - The placement zoom circle is fairly slow to pop up. - There is only one undo allowed. It has happened that while placing a stone with my index finger, I accidentally brushed my thumb on the board and it placed a stone there. Then the computer quickly played, and then lifting my index finger registered a second play. But, only one undo is allowed so I'm stuck with the accidental thumb click. Due to the nature of the input device (the iPad), and how I use it (in bed), accidental touches are common. This could be solved either a) if a finger is down placing a stone, don't allow a second finger to register, or b) allow multiple levels of undo. If the author wants to protect the integrity of the ranks given by this software (like anyone really cares), then they can allow a setting where multiple levels of undo are available but that game won't count toward the player's ranking.
