Go
Grid territory game
Go is an ancient Chinese board game (also called weiqi or baduk) in which players place black and white stones to control territory.
Simple rules yield profound strategic depth.
Go is also a programming language developed by Google, known for simplicity and concurrency: The backend is written in Go. (Lowercase go is the verb.)
