Although the title gives little away, this program plays a rather mean game of Reversi. This is a board game in which you place counters on a squared board and then try to change all your opponent's counters into your colour.

It is very simple to learn yet difficult to master. The instructions given are entirely on screen, the cassette insert just contains loading instructions and I think that new players will find this a little less than adequate. The problem of difficulty is compounded by the computer setting the level of skill that it will play in the first game, the player having no control at all over this.

I found that at the Moderate level it plays a good game, with a great deal of the positional and strategical intelligence that makes this game quite addictive.

The biggest disappointment is the graphics, which can only be described as rather sparse and basic. A good game but with very few of the touches of quality that I would expect for this price.
