Othello

2009-08-04T09:11:00.000-07:00

There will be an Othello social event this Saturday, organised by the Othello Organisation Singapore (OOS), at Buona Vista Community Club from 6pm to 8pm.
Here are the details...

Venue: Buona Vista CC
Date: 8th August, Sat
Time: 6pm-8pm

This Othello event is informal and it will just be a night of fun, socialising and Othello game discussions. There will be no charge fees or competitions on the day itself.

More details regarding the event are also available at www.othellosingapore.com

If you do not know what is Othello, here is a brief introduction.
Othello, a modern version of Reversi, was inspired by GO (weiqi).
The objective of this classic strategy game is to finish the game with the greater amount of pieces (circles) of the same color.

Here is a website to try out a game of Othello online

Curious about what is the difference between Othello and Reversi?
Click here to view a short forum thread OR a better option, go for the Othello Social Event to get your answers. =D

If you're interested in going, email Ji Yuen at gn_koh@hotmail.com.
