If you like the classic board game of Checkers you'll love Othello. Plus it's much easier to put away when you're finished playing. ;-) I never jumped on the video game band wagon back in the 80's, but I did acquire an NES system. Stumbled across it one day and decided to search eBay to see if games were still available. Boy howdy! Seems they're everywhere. Somewhere I read there were over 60 million NES systems manufactured and shipped world wide. Othello is different in play than Checkers, but you can still strategize and lead your opponent just where you want them. Then go in for the take down. If playing the computer on the higher levels - forget it! Play goes along kind of fast for the first few moves and then suddenly the computer takes a long pause. That's when you know it's over for you! I find it fun to learn from the machine and then use those tactics on my human challengers. Great game for us old timers.Read full review
Othello is a fun, challenging, game with several modes of play. The graphics and music are simplistic, but nothing that takes away from the gameplay itself. Perfect for the gamer who likes to flex their brain, no fast reflexes required!

Finally found a game my fiance will want to play with me. It is challenging, because the computer is a worthy competitor. 2 player vs mode is fun, and since there is no music why you are playing it can be kind of a good game to play when quiet time is going on at your house
