🎯 Objective
Have the most discs of your colour when the board is full — or when neither player can move. You play Black ⚫, the AI plays White ⬜. Black goes first.
🕹 How to Play
- Tap a green dot to place your disc there
- A move is only valid if it traps at least one opponent disc between your new disc and another of yours — in a straight line (horizontal, vertical, or diagonal)
- All trapped opponent discs flip to your colour
- If you have no legal moves, your turn is skipped
- If neither player can move, the game ends immediately
🏆 Winning
Count up all discs when the board fills up (or no moves remain). The player with more discs wins. In Ultimate Reversi, positions can swing dramatically — you can go from 4 to 40 discs in just a few moves!
💡 Strategy Tips
- Corners are king — a disc in a corner can never be flipped. Race for them
- Avoid the X-squares — the 4 diagonal squares adjacent to corners give your opponent a path to the corner
- Fewer discs early is good — fewer discs means fewer moves for your opponent to outmanoeuvre you
- Mobility matters — limiting your opponent's move count is often more valuable than flipping more discs
