Basically the only Go/Baduk/Weiqi app where I'm able to actually learn while I play against AI. All others I've found, the AI is completely unbalanced at the beginner level and you have no hope of even coming close in a game against it (some even tell you your chances of winning as you play and there's nothing quite demoralizing like being told you have a .01% chance of winning). This one I've actually learned a lot by playing against the AI and have started beating it more and more often!

I already recommended this to a friend. Between lessons and puzzles, learning is straight forward. AI, friend, and online play are options for the player. The music is cheerful to boot! There are somethings locked behind pay walls, which is a little lame, but most of it is cosmetics, and what isn't doesn't heavily impact the core mechanics.

Edited: it ends up there is no bug but my mistake. The support team respond to my problem pretty fast (within 15 mins), and is currently investigating my issue. For unknown reasons the puzzles I unlocked with study keys do not go into permanent collection anymore after I unlocked around 18 puzzles. So I wasted my study keys on puzzles that I cannot go back to review in future. Otherwise, the lessons are a good start for go beginner, and you have variety of different levels of AI to practice.

Really good app if you pay for premium, not a lot of long term value otherwise. Especially if you're a beginner. You're forced into a time limit that doesn't give you much time to think about moves and have to pay to increase the time. You're also unable to play against an AI more than a few times per day unless you pay, again the exact opposite of what beginners need.

As a beginner, it's hard to follow the logic puzzles since you're expected to see further ahead than it lets you play. Why did I get this puzzle wrong? I don't know, it didn't let me play it out to see why I failed. I got it right this time? Too bad I can't learn why since we've moved on to the next puzzle already. Also the AI's resign too quickly. Maybe better players would consider the game over, but I want to play it out till my position is secure, not just staked out. Friend v friend is good

Definitely great to get you started... I just think it's such a complicated game that there needs to be a beginner mode with AI walking you through a game, explaining it along the way. Overall I think they do a great job explaining moves and things... I just think it needs to be done during a game to truly understand them. I also only have the free version so maybe it's in the paid.
