Famicom Igo Nyuumon is one of those classic NES titles that flew under the radar outside Japan. It's basically Go for beginners—the tutorial vibes are strong, but in a good way if you've ever wanted to learn the game without drowning in complexity.

You start off with the basics: placing stones, learning captures, and figuring out territory. The AI isn’t brutal, which helps when you’re still wrapping your head around why that one move just lost you half the board. The pixelated grid and simple sound effects won’t blow anyone away, but there’s something oddly satisfying about the click of a virtual stone hitting the board.

It’s definitely a product of its time—no flashy animations or online play here—but if you’ve got patience and a soft spot for retro strategy, it’s a solid way to kill an afternoon. Just don’t expect it to hold your hand forever.
