The board game
Reversi is a two-player game. One player has the black stones (you),
the other the white ones (the computer).
The players
alternatingly set stones on the board, black starts. When it is
your turn and you place a stone, any of the opponent color stones
that get caught between two of your stones are flipped, so they
change color.
You may only
set a piece if doing so will flip at least one other piece. Otherwise,
you have to pass, and it's again your opponent's turn.
The game ends
when either the board is full, or neither player can make a move.
At that moment, the player who has the most pieces of his color
has won. Draws are possible.
================================================
Instructions
You move first, playing the Black pieces.
You play a piece by clicking the mouse on an unoccupied square. This puts one of your pieces into that square. The idea is to trap one or more of your opponent's pieces between two of your pieces. Those opponent's pieces then change color to become your pieces.
When either you or your opponent cannot play another piece, the game is over. The winner is the one with the most pieces.
