A new game called Dango combines the rules of go with the mechanics of a card game. Players use two kinds of cards, representing either go shapes or “actions”. The go shapes are used to play stones on a goban, while the actions allow (or require) players to do various things, like remove opponent’s stones, lose their turn, or block a move that an opponent wants to make. Cards can be downloaded and printed out or sets can be purchased from Alexander Dinerchtein.
