Othello Puzzle turns the classic flipping game into short, clever end games. Every level is a position near the end of a game: find the moves that leave you ahead when the last stone is placed. The computer defends perfectly, so every win is earned. 120 LEVELS IN SIX WORLDS Each world brings a new idea. Start with pure end games, then play around rocks that block lines, anchored stones that never turn, gold squares that count double and flags you have to hold at the end. The last world mixes them all. STARS FOR THE BEST LEAD Win with the best possible lead for three stars. Stars open the next worlds, and the level map shows how far you have come. A NEW PUZZLE EVERY DAY The daily puzzle has a theme for each weekday. The calendar keeps a whole year of puzzles to catch up on, counts the days you solved each month and your daily streak. FREE GAME AGAINST THE COMPUTER Play a whole classic game from the opening. Choose the computer's strength: easy, medium, hard or ultra. 18 ACHIEVEMENTS Corners, big flips, perfect runs, streaks and more. Plays offline, in English and German, on iPhone and iPad.
