Excellent value. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great product *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 29 April 2026* Ita great, pieces on the smaller side so be warned. Magnets work great, board is made well. Using it daily without issues ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Brilliant & Cheap Way to Play Go, Amazon Images are Inaccurate *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 22 June 2025* If you've seen the Anime/Manga Series 'Hikaru No Go' recently or in the last 20 years and you've been meaning to try and play and learn the game. Yellow Mountain provides a cheaper and compact version of the game that doesn't break your bank. How much you want to learn and play greatly depends on how far you're willing to "go" with the game. It comes with a small booklet to teach you the rules and basics.The design looks beautiful and a very clean presentation. The 'stones' when placed around after a game does give an urge to take photos because it looks like art at times.The magnets for the most time stay on the board quite well even if you do gently shakes.The board actually has letters and numbers on the board that helps you navigate the board if you're following instructions, practicing, learning or wanting to replicate games.However...- The images that I've taken look almost completely different from how it's presented on the Amazon pages. The stones look smaller and the top is flatter.- The board has numbers and letters, this is really helpful. Why this isn't shown in the provided images is quite odd.- Some of the stones have magnets not completely sticking on the board, causing some to slide off.- Playing with the stones are great for children but can be hard for adults trying to pick and place stones.- The containers while nice, easily become loose without much effort. I highly recommend getting elastic bands to keep the containers from opening.But saying this, it's still a brilliant way to get into Go. The low cost of entry, compact, magnetic are what keep this product at 4 stars.You may wish to spend some extra to get the bigger variant. Otherwise, you can definitely have some good times playing this! ## Frequently Bought Together - Yellow Mountain Imports Large Magnetic 19x19 Go Game Set Board (14.6-Inch) with Single Convex Stones - Folding, Portable, and Travel Ready Set - Go!
