Abstract

One of most widespread traditional games of the world is the game of Go , which has be - come a symbol of Japanese traditional culture, despite of its Chinese origin. The simplicity of his rules contrasts with its strategic difficulty. This fact usually makes it more interesting to its players and makes it unique. However, the transference of cul - tural values through byproducts or the rules of the game could implicitly be more valuable than the practice abilities that the players can develop.
