The video
The video is narrated and captioned in Hebrew; the transcript below is in English.
Reversi
Reversi inside the room: you invite a player and play on an 8×8 board. Every move must flip the opponent's discs, and at the end the majority of discs wins.
How to start
- In a game room: tap "New table", choose Reversi and invite a player from the room. In a regular room, whoever manages the game starts it.
- The invited player taps "I'll play" — they have 60 seconds. The server draws who plays Black, and Black moves first.
How to play
- The board starts with four discs in the center.
- On your turn, place a disc that traps the opponent's discs — in a row, in a column or on a diagonal — and they flip to your color.
- A move must flip at least one disc. Whoever has no move passes automatically, and the turn moves on.
- Each turn has one minute.
How the game ends
| Neither player has a move | The majority of discs wins; a tie is a draw |
|---|---|
| Time runs out on the turn (one minute) | Whoever did not play loses, and the opponent wins |
| "Leave the game" in the middle | Forfeit — the opponent wins |
What you choose at the start
