“When we think of the charge of escapism often leveled at videogames, we picture vivid imaginary worlds and wish-fulfilling power fantasies. But there's another way that games can be escapist. Thought is painful, our minds are cluttered with the endless chatter of consciousness, and Go is like a single note, a pure tone created by striking this tiny corner of the universe, and it reverberates forever, filling your mind with something like silence.”
― Frank Lantz, The Beauty of Games
