What is Go81?

Go81 is a program which plays the game of go on a small board.
It uses Chinese rules with a 5.5 point komi.

Usage

Use the pointer to play. You can choose the players, board size and the handicap by selecting the options from the menu. The program scores the game after it is finished. After the game has ended, you can start a new game by tapping the board anywhere.
The opponent level 1 is fast but does not pass until very late in the game. That is good if you are just learning the basics but can be annoying later on.
The opponent level 2 is fast in the beginning but plays better and slower later.
