Heuk Sun Baek Sa (Korea)

Published in 1997 by Oksan under the F2 System brand, Heuk Sun Baek Sa is a two-player tabletop game originating from Korea. The title itself translates to "Black first, kill white," hinting at the core gameplay mechanic. Players engage in a direct competition mirroring the classic board game Go – also known as Baduk or Weiqi – where strategic placement of pieces on a grid determines victory. The objective is to surround and capture your opponent’s pieces while simultaneously protecting your own. Each player takes turns placing their stones, aiming to control territory and outmaneuver their rival through careful planning and tactical foresight. The game requires players to think several moves ahead as they attempt to gain dominance on the board. Heuk Sun Baek Sa offers a unique arcade adaptation of a traditional strategy game, providing a focused, head-to-head challenge for two competitors.
