Reversi, also known as Othello, is a board game where you try to capture as many tiles on the board as possible. To capture tiles, you place your pieces on unoccupied squares next to an opponent’s tile such that you have a direct horizontal, vertical, or diagonal path to another of your pieces. All of your opponents pieces along that line are then captured and become yours. Check out the Wikipedia page for the complete rules.
