🎮 About Othello

Othello (also called Reversi) is a strategy game from the 19th century that became famous in Japan under its current name. You place a disc so that it traps your opponent's discs between two of yours, and they all flip to your colour. At the end, whoever has more discs wins. You can learn it in a minute, but mastering it takes a lifetime.

💡 Tips to win

• Corners are the strongest squares because they can never flip.
• Avoid the squares next to corners early in the game.
• Flipping fewer discs is often better than flipping many.

🧠 What it builds

Othello teaches thinking ahead and that a quick gain is not always best, and it builds observation and spatial planning.
