Outflank, flip and own the board
Reversi Classic sets the old disc-flipping game on a 3D wooden board with a green grid marked a to h and 1 to 8. You play black, the computer answers at once, and small dots mark every legal square. A move must trap a line of the opponent's discs between your new disc and one of your own, which flips them all. Training has several difficulty levels, and there are friend, one-screen, daily and ranked modes.
How to play Reversi Classic
- Pick Training and a difficulty, or With a Friend, One Screen, Daily or Ranked match.
- Click a square marked with a dot to place a disc.
- Every line of opponent discs trapped between your new disc and another of yours flips to your colour.
- Use Hint or Undo, two of each per game, when stuck.
- The player with more discs when the game ends wins.
Controls
| Click / tap a square | Place a disc |
|---|---|
| Hint / Undo buttons | Show a move / take one back |
Tips to play better
- Corners can never be flipped back, so they are worth taking.
- Squares next to an empty corner often hand that corner to your opponent.
- Only squares with a dot can be played, so check the dots before you think about a move.
