The first few times I played it, I wasn't sure what was going on - I put down my piece and flip over the other color, right? But there was obviously more to it than that, as I was winning - or losing - with no rhyme nor reason. Eventually, I started to get an idea of how to play and it became more fun. The music is great, so that certainly makes it more pleasant.. A simple but challenging board game. There's ELO ranking and it notifies you via steam whenever it is your turn to play.It's pretty fun with friends. Get it on a sale.. Game runs fine so far with no problems but no one is online to play against.+ Clean and fast inteface.+ A.I. is great with many difficulty settings to suit your skill level.+ Local Multi-player+ Steam Achievements, Cards..etc.Side-Note: this is Othello not Reversi and here is why:1- In Reversi, the starting configuration was not predetermined, like it is in Othello and here. Players would take turns setting down the first four pieces in the center of the board. Because of this, either player could force the \u201cparallel\u201d starting configuration (White White Black Black), rather than the predetermined Othello starting configuration (White Black Black White).2- In Reversi, the game is over as soon as either player could not make a move. In Othello and this game, the player without a move simply passes, and the other player makes as many moves as needed before the first player can make a move again. The game is only over once neither player can make a move.. A classic board game with working versus AI, local, and online multiplayer. I've had good fun playing friends online across the country aside from the occasional crash. UI is really ugly and is only servicable. Get it when it's on sale and make sure its a 2-pack so you can actually play with someone since online is dead.. Good ol' classic Othello. Game is fluid, graphic is crisp and clear, AI is very good. Moreso, it has hotseat and internet\/online play.Recommended.. First of all, these reveiwers saying this is not "Reversi" but actually "Othello" I have no idea what they are talking about. I've been playing Reversi\/Othello for a long time, as well as have been researching board and card games, and I have never encountered a version that didn't start with four pieces in the center, and I've always found "Reversi" and "Othello" used interchangeably. But games like this are old and acquire many rules over time. Who can really say, and does it really matter that much?Now, as for the game itself, don't buy it unless it's on a pretty heavy sale. I waited until it fell down to about $3, and had I paid a dime more than that I'd have been pretty upset. While functional it lacks polish. Only two varieties of pieces, no varieties of boards or backgrounds. The background music is annoying with no other options. The sound effects are grating. Seems like small stuff, but they are all things that should be present for $10 whole wing-wangs. In 3-D mode the pieces flip over in a very satisfying way, but if you make a large capture the computer goes immediately after while your pieces are still flipping. And if you make a large capture, and the computer makes a large capture, your first pieces could be flipping back before your captured pieces are finished turning over. I find it to be incredibly annoying.All of these seems like small complaints and they are, but to be charging $10 I'd expect a lot more. I'd expect a lot more especially when you can just google "Reversi" or "Othello" and find a low tech flash version on a website and play for free. So save your $10 and put it towards a real Othello\/Reversi board you can buy at any Toys'R'us.
