Question 1

On average, how many moves does a Go game last?   Please note that I'm asking on average.   Just want an idea before I buy.

Accepted Answer

Games of Go usually take between 175 and 250 moves.  This can be quick: in a casual game, players take around 10 seconds per move, making the game last around 30 minutes.  I recommend taking a look at a few beginner websites to learn how to play - the rules alone are not quite enough to really enjoy the game, since there are so many possibilities.

Question 2

Does it have a cheap feel to it? Lightweight, flimsy etc. 
Or does it have more of a durable, solid feel to it?

Accepted Answer

It's a solid travel set, it's inexpensive and totally worth the money.  If you want a nice luxurious set the cough up at least $100 or more and get a proper wooden board with heavy stones that are stone.  This is magnetic, with plastic coating, and very good value for what you get.   I'm very happy with this set but do very much want a genuine set although I just cannot afford that at this time.  For the cost I don't think you will be disappointed, and if you are then you should curb your expectations of a board that cost less than $30 because this is a very good deal, played many a great game on it, magnets work very well.I've always wished for a quality heavy board with small magnets inside each of the intersections and stones made of actual magnetic rock so that the pieces sat perfectly in their positions and never strayed, that would be beautiful and i'd pay $200 easy for such a board if it existed.......   rant over, hope it was helpful buddy

Question 3

Can someone recommend a well fitting case for this set?

Accepted Answer

The board folds up and acts as a case itself, fitting in all the stones in their respective containers. Additionally, the box that comes with the set can protect the folded board. Beyond this, if you wanted to look for a travel bag I can tell you that the board after it is folded will be within (no more than) the rectangular dimensions of 14.75 inch by 7.50 inch by 2.25 inch.

Question 4

Is this board game 19 x 19?

Accepted Answer

yes, 19x19 magnetic board with plastic stonesit is pretty convenient to play and it is not so heavy at the same time
