Ono

Ono is a traditional Japanese board game, similar to Go, but often refers specifically to a variant played on a smaller board. Players take turns placing stones, aiming to capture territory by surrounding their opponent’s pieces. It emphasizes strategic thinking, planning, and foresight. The game's simplicity in rules contrasts with its deep complexity in gameplay, making it intriguing for both casual players and serious strategists. Ono fosters social interaction and can be played competitively or just for fun, appealing to a wide range of ages and skill levels.
