Igo Shinan '93 — About this game
``Go Instruction '93'' contains 135 games, including 36 games of the 1991 title game and the classic game records of Honinbo Jokazu, Hidekazu, Shuho, and Shuei. It is not a game where you can freely challenge the CPU, but instead focuses on ``spectating'' to follow the steps of a famous game, and ``judging skill'' to guess the start of the actual match. Automatic spectating can be played at five speed levels, and it also supports manual spectating, where you read each move one by one, and reviewing by going back and specifying the number of moves. There are two types of judgment: intermediate, which shows up to five candidates, and advanced, which has no candidates. If you get a wrong answer, your actual hand will be displayed, so you can check the difference between your reading and your own. The correct answer here is the move the player made in the game, and does not guarantee the best move in every situation.
