### 3/5 — Who cares about the design.

*2017-10-25, version 1.2.0*

This game is fun, I don't need no bull.

### 1/5 — Low class design

*2016-09-22, version 1.1.9*

Bad

### 1/5 — piece of garbage

*2013-05-23*

Nothing but trash

### 3/5 — Very strong AI opponent, dreadful user interface

*2012-05-11*

Most Reversi/Othello apps play a very poor game.  This one plays far better, but the user interface is terrible - a mishmash of random colour and font choices,  and some poor English.  Overall, a great pity.

### 1/5 — Worst app ever

*2012-01-23*

Do not waste ur time on it

### 5/5 — Good

*2012-01-22*

Good
