za3k > OGS Go game collection
All (27 million) Go games, downloaded from online-go.com (aka OGS) and redistributed with permission. They may be useful for archiving, artificial intelligence training, or Go research.
-
Internet Archive mirror in case downloads are slow
-
README has everything you need to know
-
SGF files, one per game. SGF is a format viewable by most Go computer programs.
- Almost all OGS games organized chronologically, aka by date played (6.2GB download, 44 GB uncompressed)
- Almost all OGS games organized by username (11 GB download, 88GB uncompressed)
- OGS tournament/uploaded games (0.13 GB download, 0.6 GB uncompressed). Some games were uploaded as SGFs to OGS, so I just provide them here unchanged. It looks like most such games are professional matches or amateur tournaments. They are organized by date played, beginning in the 1600s.
-
