Location: Dining Room
Description: One of our members, Michael Haynes, has offered to teach and organize players for the game of Othello. This is a game you will flip out over! A two player game, the strategy is to trap and capture your opponent’s pieces by placing your disks on the board. Player start with four, and add one each turn. Every time you "sandwich" one or more of your opponent's pieces you flip those disks to your color, but your opponent will try and do the same to you. Winning means having more pieces on the board than their opponent. The game is considered finished when there are no spaces left on the board or there are no more possible legal moves for either player. If you know the Othello game OR want to learn it check it out. Michael will provide all the things you need to play.
