Black and White alternate putting disks on vacant squares from an initial opening position. Black is at the bottom and starts. Each disk must be placed so that it sandwiches one or more disks of the opposite color between itself and another disk of same color, with no empty squares intervening. The sandwiched disks are flipped, changing color. If one player can't move, he must pass his turn. The game ends when neither side can move, usually when the whole board is filled. The winner is the player with the most pieces of his color. In contrast to standard Reversi, in Reversi II you place half of your own tokens and half of your opponentīs tokens (you place 2 x 15 tokens each). In the default variant, you alternate between placing black and white pieces. Two indicators at the border show what color your next token has. In variant 2, shown below, you choose when you place your color. The small indicators at the border show how many tokens of each color are left.
