Reversi

Disc-flipping strategy game

Reversi is a board game for two players who take turns placing disks on a grid, capturing opponent pieces by flanking them.

Captured disks flip to show the capturing player's color.

The goal is to have more pieces showing your color when the board fills.

Also called Othello, a trademarked version with slightly different rules.
