Otherwise, your opponent may see an opportunity to block your other moves and you will lose the game. Count the number of discs of each color to determine a winner. Once there are no more legal moves, add up all of the discs of each color. The player with more discs of his color wins the game. Set a time limit for a more intense game. You may set a specific time limit for each player's total moves if you want to play a fast, intense game of Othello.
This means the game may end before you and your opponent run out of legal moves. Keep the clock running while each player takes their turn and pause the clock when they pass the turn to their opponent. You may choose a time limit that appeals to you and your opponent.
For example, World championship rules typically give each player a total of 30 minutes to make all of their moves. This time is reduced after each turn until a player runs out of time or the game is over.
However, you can set a time limit as low as 5 minutes per player if you prefer faster games. Who is the winner of Othello when the player with the most discs at the end can't move? When you can't make a move, the game ends. Both players then count their discs, and the person with the most wins. Not Helpful 3 Helpful If there are two chances of flipping e. In one move, you can flank in two or even more sides, if possible. If I outflank my opponent and flip a disc which then outflanks a number of other discs, am I allowed to flip those as well?
Only the discs which are outflanked by the stone you placed can be flipped. Flipped discs do not create chain reactions. Not Helpful 2 Helpful As soon as there is a coin in a spot adjacent to a corner that you can flip when placing a coin, you can place your coin in the corner and taking a corner as soon as you can is normally the best move. Not Helpful 0 Helpful Diagonals count, and are probably the easiest way to get corners at that.
Also, one move can set off multiple turns, all the way up to all eight directions if that were somehow available. Not Helpful 1 Helpful 6. Could I ever play a disk next to my own color if I am on my way to being able to flip a row? The only invalid moves are those that do not turn disks. A move that turns and happens to be next to another of your disks is perfectly valid. Not Helpful 4 Helpful Yes, the player who is trapped is between your color, meaning the other disc is now yours.
Not Helpful 6 Helpful Only moves that can turn discs are valid. For example, on the first turn with the four discs in the center, Black can only place discs on the other side of the two White discs, which turns them. Getting to the corners takes a bit of work. Not Helpful 11 Helpful You can flip as many discs as there are connected in a straight line from your played disc. This could feasibly be up to 18 discs at one time.

See Figures 5 and 6. Figure 6: These 2 disk flipped. Disks 1 and 2 are not flipped even though they appear to be outflanked.. All disks outflanked in any one move must be flipped, even if it is to the player's advantage not to flip them at all.
Once a disk is placed on a square, it can never be moved to another square later in the game. When it is no longer possible for either player to move, the game is over. Disks are counted and the player with the majority of their colour showing is the winner.
This is the basic Othello games rules. A disc or row of discs is outflanked when it is surrounded at the ends by discs of the opposite color. A disc may outflank any number of discs in one or more rows in any direction horizontal, vertical, diagonal. For example: a white piece is being placed on the board that creates a straight line made up of a white piece at either end and only black pieces in between.
The black discs on E4, E5 and E6 are now outflanked by the white disc on E3 and the white disc on E7. All the discs which are outflanked will be flipped, even if it is to the player's advantage not to flip them.
Each player counts the number of spaces occupied by their color. Highest count is the winner. Games can end before all spaces are filled. Name required. Email will not be published required. Website optional.
