1. Introduction

Reversi is a simple strategy game that is played by two players. There is only one type of piece - one side of it is black, the other white. If a player captures a piece on the board, that piece is turned and belongs to that player. The winner is the person that has more pieces of his own color on the board and if there are no more moves possible.

1.1 Object of the game

The object of the game is to have the majority of your color discs on the board at the end of the game.

1.2 A Minute to Learn

A move consists of "outflanking" your opponent's disc(s), then flipping the outflanked disc(s) to your color.

To outflank means to place a disc on the board so that your opponent's row (or rows) of disc(s) is bordered at each end by a disc of your color.
