Yes this is a very strategic board game with 2 players. One with white stones and the other black stones. the idea is that one player has to outwit their opponent by surrounding all their stones with their own. When an opponents stones are surrounded you remove them from the board - the winner is either the one with only their stones left on the board or if the board is completed and both colours remain it's the one with the most territory that wins.
