Play Go with a Friend
Create a public or private room, then invite a friend with a share link or room code. You can also browse and join public rooms for 9×9, 13×13, and 19×19 boards.
Create a room
Choose a room type and board size, then invite a friend with the link or room code.
Public rooms use shorter codes and appear in the lobby for anyone to join.
Join a room

Both players need to be online at the same time. Room codes are only for this game, expire when the page closes, and do not store personal information.
