About Reversi.now

Reversi.now is a free place to play the board game you already know and love, right in your browser. No download, no signup, and no waiting. Open the page and you are placing your first disc in seconds. Our mission is simple: keep classic Reversi fast, fair, and free for everyone, on any device.

What Reversi.now is

We are a small team that grew up playing Reversi and wanted a version that respects your time. Every game here runs in your web browser, so there is nothing to install and nothing to update. You can start with Reversi, the classic most people picture when they hear the word "Reversi", or jump straight into Othello or Rolit. It is all free, and it always will be.

What makes us different

A lot of Reversi sites feel cluttered and slow. We built ours to feel clean and quick.

• Real-time multiplayer. Play a friend head-to-head on the same board in real time in our multiplayer rooms.
• 7 full variants. From classic Reversi and Othello to Rolit, Anti-Reversi and boards from 4x4 to 10x10, every major variant is here.
• A daily challenge. One seeded board per day, the same for everyone, so you can compare and build a streak.
• A clean, calm feel. No pop-ups fighting for your attention and no clutter between you and the board.

How the games work

We care about getting the details right. Every game starts from the same fair opening, and the daily challenge uses a seeded setup so it plays out identically for everyone. That is what lets two players share the same multiplayer board or the same daily challenge. Our rules follow the traditional versions of each variant, and you can read them in plain English on the rules hub.

Your stats, streaks, and preferences are saved right in your browser, so you can play as a guest and still keep your progress. Want to sync across devices and appear on the leaderboards? Create a free account. It is optional, and you never need one just to play.

Who it is for

Reversi.now is for anyone who likes a good board game. Maybe you want a quiet five minutes with a quick game of Mini Reversi. Maybe you love the deep strategy of Othello, where every disc can swing the count. Maybe you just want to beat a friend head-to-head. Beginners can learn the ropes on the rules pages, and long-time players can chase cleaner wins and bigger margins. There is room for both.

Our standards

We hold ourselves to a few simple promises:

• Accurate rules. Each variant follows its traditional rules, so what you learn here carries over to a real board.
• Honest difficulty. We are upfront about how each variant and each computer level plays, instead of pretending every game is an easy win.
• Privacy-respecting. We keep data collection light and explain exactly what we store in our privacy policy.
