If you're unable to outflank your opponent on your turn, you skip your turn. After your done with your turn, your opponent goes and places one of their tokens on the board to outflank one of your rows. When you outflank an opponent, you flip all of their tokens in between your 2 tokens on the end upside down so they're your color now. In order to place a token on the board, you must place it somewhere that outflanks your opponent, which means it sandwiches one of the horizontal, vertical, or diagonal rows of their tokens between two of your tokens, one on each end. On your turn, place one of your tokens on the board with your color facing up. Then, split the remaining tokens up equally between you and your opponent. Flip a coin to see who gets to be black, since black goes first. To set up the game, place 4 pieces in the center squares on the board so 2 of the pieces are white-side up and 2 of the pieces are black-side up, with the matching colors diagonal from each other. Othello, also known as Reversi, is a fun 2-player board game where players try to trap and collect more pieces than their opponent.
