In HexaGenius, players take turns placing colored domino-style tiles on a game board, scoring for each line of colored symbols that they enlarge. The trick, however, is that a player's score is equal to their worst-scoring color, not their best, so they need to score for all colors instead of specializing in only one or two.

About

Reversi

Features
Read full description

Reversi (リバーシ) - a strategy board game for two players. The game Reversi was invented in 1883 in London by two English men and renewed popularity in Japan later (also was known as Othello - the same name as Shakespeare's famous tragedy). Now Reversi is very popular in Japan as Checkers in other countries. Short Reversi Rules: There are 64 identical game pieces called disks, which are light on one side and dark on the other. Players take turns placing discs on the board with their assigned color facing up. During a play, any discs of the opponent's color that are in a straight line and bounded by the disc just placed and another disc of the current player's color are reversed to the current player's color. The object of game is to have the majority of discs turned to display your color when the last playable empty square is filled. Features: + Single offline player + Several difficulty levels + Multiplayer for two + Board notation + Undo moves
