  • Publisher: Ravensburger
  • Year of issue: 1972

Description
Reversi is played on an 8x8 board. Both players each have 32 double-sided discs (one side green and the other side red). The players agree with which color they play. At the start of the game, two green and two red disks are located next to each other. When it comes to the turn, one disc must be placed on the game board so that at least one disc of the other color is present between its inserted disc and a previously played own disc. These other discs are then turned over to their own color (hence the name of the game). You, therefore, have to constantly lock in and turn the embedded discs to your own color.

If a disc is inserted that simultaneously encloses several rows of the opponent, the player may turn the discs from only one row of their choice to their color.

Those who can not place must skip a turn. The game ends when all 64 fields are occupied or when no player can make a move. The color that is most visible then determines the winner.

This smaller edition uses a yellow plastic game board in which the red and green disks are fixed.

Condition
This game is in a nice vintage condition. The box shows traces of use and age-related traces of wear.
