SUMMARY: An online reversi (othello) game with a great community

Reversi Online Tournament is an online Reversi (also known as Othello) app for the iphone and ipod touch. The game features everything one may hope to find in a Reversi app for the iPhone. This is a strictly online game that will only work when connected via Edge, 3G or Wifi. For those of you who are not familiar with Reversi, let me explain: Each player has a different color, the object of the game is to lay a piece on the board that surrounds the pieces of the other player, these pieces then become yours and the next player gets a chance. This is done until the whole entire board is filled. The game itself is one of strategy and thinking ahead.

This app does a great job of making the game accessible for everyone. When you sign in, you are presented with different rooms to play in. After selecting a room you can then select a player from the list and challenge them to a game, or you can observe a game while it's being played. In both the lobby and in-game, chat is available for players to discuss whatever is on their mind.

Overall, this app looks and sounds great. It offers some great game play with others who are interested in playing as well. For those looking for a computer player to go against, this app does not provide it. But the online mode is so good, I don't see why you would need a computer when you have another player to go against. For the cheap price being asked, this game is great. Check it out
