OBJECT OF THE GAME

You and your computer opponent will take turns placing a chip in various squares on the LCD screen. Each time you place a chip, you will "capture" 1 or more of the computer’s chips. The computer will also be capturing your chips. When the grid is completely full, the player with the most chips on the grid wins. Touch-screen Othello® can also be played against a human opponent, by choosing the 2-player game.

STYLUS

STARTING A NEW GAME

Press the ON / NEW GAME button to wake up the unit. Press NEW GAME for two seconds to start a new game.

Use the stylus to select the 1-player or 2-player icon. If you select 1-player, the computer icon will illuminate and toggle back and forth with the 1-player icon to determine who moves first.

Now you can select the skill level at which you wish to play.

Level 1: Easiest

Level 2: Harder

Level 3: Hardest

When the level icon is illuminated on the screen, use the stylus to select the level you want to play.

After level has been selected, press START/REPLAY button to start the game.

PLACE A CHIP

During a game, use the stylus to place a chip. Each player starts with two chips in the middle of the grid/gameboard.

You will see a Black chip appear in the top-left corner of the grid.

If you have the black chip, use the Stylus to move your chip to a position in which you can capture a White chip

between two of your Black chips.

After capturing a White chip, it will turn into a Black chip.

If the computer has the Black chips it will start first and capture one of your chips. Next, it will be your turn to try to capture one or more of the computer’s Black chips.

Continue taking turns capturing chips until the entire board is full or until one player has no chips remaining. You can also capture multiple chips at the same time.

The winner is the player with the most chips on the board at the end of the game.

The game is a draw when each player has the same amount of chips at the end of the game.

PASS

The game will automatically pass your turn if there is no move available.
