How to play Reversi

Finish with more discs of your color on the board than your opponent.

A single well-placed disc can flip a whole row of your opponent's pieces at once, swinging the board's momentum in an instant.

  • Click a highlighted square to place your disc there
  • A legal move must flank and flip at least one opponent disc

💡 Corners can't be flipped back — controlling them locks in an advantage.

💡 Avoid playing next to a corner early on, since that square often lets your opponent slide in and claim the corner instead.
