The Many Faces of Go
Keywords: Software
Go progam by David Fotland.
See I think Many Face is a great program for beginners to 10ish kyu. Great all around program. There may be better programs for 1 specific application, but as a suite it is wonderful. It offers:
from GoPlayingProgramsDiscussion Many Faces has many extra features missing from other Go programs. It has a joseki dictionary that you can use for reference or to test your knowledge, with about 60,000 moves. It has a very good game editor that understands both .sgf and .go formats. You can easily add or remove variations, or insert missing moves, or even move stones that are on the wrong point. It has a great tutorial for beginners and includes all of the Go problems from Graded Go Problems Vol 1. And it has the best, most realistic graphics. -- David Fotland, Nov 2000 I would have to agree somewhat. If one is trying to learn the game of Go, I think Many Faces is good for people from beginners through upper kyu players. It has a lot of instructional tools as well as multiple levels of play. If the purpose of your program is for editing games and creating demonstration games or lessons, there are limitations with Many Faces.... -- Steve Rothman? 7K This is a copy of the living page "The Many Faces of Go" at Sensei's Library. ![]() |
