The revised description is:

 gpe-go is a also known as Weiqi in Chinese, Igo in Japanese and
 Baduk in Korean. gpe-go brings go to the GPE Palmtop Environment.
 .
 gpe-go is played by alternately placing black and white stones on the
 vacant intersections of a 19x19 rectilinear grid. A stone or a group of
 stones is captured and removed if it is tightly surrounded by stones of
 the opposing colour. The objective is to control a larger territory than
 the opponent by placing one's stones so they cannot be captured. The
 game ends and the score is counted when both players consecutively pass
 on a turn, indicating that neither side can increase its territory or
 reduce its opponent's; the game can also end by resignation.

(Thanks for spotting the omission.)
