This is a great travel GO Set! All playing pieces are inside. The folding board is magnetized for steady and sure play on the move. A great set for family vacations, business trips with colleagues, and anywhere where you want the challenge of a classic game in a size that fits right in your bag. Go, an ancient game of Chinese origin, rewards patience and concentration. The shifting balance of territory and power can unnerve even the most disciplined and intellectual player. Like martial arts, Go is an exercise in concentration, balance, and discipline. Go can be learned in minutes, but it can take a lifetime to master. The large board and lack of restrictions allows great scope in strategy and expression of players' individuality. The object of the two-player game is to gain control of territories by alternately placing black or white stones strategically across a large ruled board. While it is easy to learn, this game of beauty and intellectual challenge provides hours of entertainment for players.
