CLUSTER GAME-9X9-AGAINST · 7 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2026-07-31

AI board game opponents

The cluster consists of apps and engines that enable single-player board game play against an AI, primarily for Go and Nine Men's Morris, with features like undo, scoring, and rule learning. The dated history before the index start is too thin to read a shape from, as only 3 dated entries exist. Traction leaders are Co-Caro, gomini, and go-game, each with zero activity stars.

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Ranked by traction, highest first, and paged 20 at a time — this is a window on the cluster, never the whole of it. Ties are broken by a stable id so a product cannot appear on two pages or fall between them. Browse every cluster.
