Palm WebOs Othello / Reversi

[D/\SH]

Now at rev 1.0.20

The classic game of Reversi, aka Othello (tb) for the Palm Pre.

• Splash screen slide show of 19th century Reversi Boards
• Visible on screen Scores
• Menu driven scenes for Preferences setting, Help with strategy and rule examples, and an About screen with a history of Reversi
• At your choice the Pre can show where you can move and the flip count of that move.
• You can choose playing white or black or watch the Pre play itself
• You can set the computers smartness or stupidity.
• The game is fun and beatable. (it is not an alpha-beta search routine, it's a weighted cell counter, so you CAN beat it.)
