Description

Othello is a digital adaptation of the classic strategy board game also known as Reversi, where players take turns placing black or white discs on an 8×8 grid to outflank and capture their opponent’s pieces, flipping them to their own color with the goal of controlling the majority of the board by the game’s end. Released in 2015 by BlueLine Game Studios for Windows, Linux, and Macintosh, it offers top-down, turn-based gameplay that captures the tactical depth and simplicity of the timeless board game mechanic.
