First, let me say this game is fun if you are playing on a quality game board with quality playing pieces.
Othello is a great game for young children. The rules are easy to learn and this game provides a solid education in basic strategy.

The good thing about Othello is that it takes just minutes to learn and almost everyone can learn it. It's all logical with no luck unless you're a beginner and things just fall into place.

Overall, a can't go wrong game for folks that like to use their brains.

I bought this toy as a birthday gift for my son. My grandmother had given me this game as a child and I was happy to find that it was still around and to pass on the enjoyment of it on to my children. I think the toy is both fun and durable. It promotes strategic thinking and is generally a good 2-player game.

Either way if you want Othello, ... Read More

I found Othello easy to learn, but man is it hard to master! I still haven't won yet, though not for want of trying!
The difficutly of each game will depend on the strategic skill of your opponent, and there definitely are some good (and bad) strategies to use. Even so, this would be a game ... Read More
