 Reversi, also known as Othello, is a strategy board game for two players. It appeared in England in the late 19th century when John Mollett and Lewis Waterman both claimed credit for inventing it.
Reversi is played on an 8x8 square grid. The game begins with four discs already placed on the board. The discs are double sided, one side dark, and the other side light. The checker-like discs are shared by both players. There are 64 checkers in the set that correspond with the 64 cells on the grid. The object of the game is flip most of the discs to your color.
Reversi is the internationally acclaimed two player strategy game that takes a minute to learn... and a lifetime to master! This classic game is played with unique disks: there's a white side and a black side on each one. Players take turns placing a disk with their color face up on the board. The object is to outflank your opponent be having your color disks on both ends of a row of your opponent's disks. When you do this, you flip your opponent's disks to your color! But be careful--your opponent may then outflank you and turn all the disks back to his color! The strategic possibilities are endless! The player that has the most disks of his color showing at the end of the game wins!
