Practice and education
zengomaster provides casual Go practice and introductory educational material. The computer opponent uses a lightweight local strategy, not a professional Go engine. Suggestions, game outcomes, and exercises do not guarantee improved rank, tournament performance, or any particular result.
Scoring and rules
Our board uses capture rules, suicide prevention, positional superko, and a Chinese-style area estimate with 6.5 points of komi for White. Two consecutive passes end the game. The score counts stones and enclosed empty intersections; it does not determine life and death or automatically remove dead stones. Finish captures before passing. Neutral areas are unassigned. Use a tournament’s official rules and referee for competitive results.
Wellbeing language
References to calm, focus, and mindfulness describe the intended atmosphere. They are not medical claims, health advice, or a treatment for any condition.
