from the designer Magnapoco is a game for 2 players, played with black and white stones on a grid board. You can play on larger grids (they must have an odd number of spaces), but I recommend starting with a 7x7. Good players will swiftly graduate to 9x9. You want to create, ideally, two large groups without being forced to connect them together, while trying to force your opponent to make small groups in small territories.
