Game Play

Othello is a strategy board game played between 2 players. One player plays black and the other white.

Each player gets 32 discs and black always starts the game.

Then the game alternates between white and black until:

one player can not make a valid move to outflank the opponent.

both players have no valid moves.

When a player has no valid moves, he pass his turn and the opponent continues.

A player can not voluntarily forfeit his turn.

When both players can not make a valid move the gane ends.

Valid Moves

Black always moves first.

A move is made by placing a disc of the player's color on the board in a position that "out-flanks" one or more of the opponent's discs.

A disc or row of discs is outflanked when it is surrounded at the ends by discs of the opposite color.

A disc may outflank any number of discs in one or more rows in any direction (horizontal, vertical, diagonal).

For example: a white piece is being placed on the board that creates a straight line made up of a white piece at either end and only black pieces in between.

White places in the illustration a disc on E3.

The black discs on E4, E5 and E6 are now outflanked by the white disc on E3 and the white disc on E7.

The black discs will be flipped to white.

All the discs which are outflanked will be flipped, even if it is to the player's advantage not to flip them.

Discs may only be outflanked as a direct result of a move and must fall in the direct line of the disc being played.

If you can't outflank and flip at least one opposing disc, you must pass your turn. However, if a move is available to you, you can't forfeit your turn.

Once a disc has been placed on a square, it can never be moved to another square later in the game.

When a player runs out of discs, but still has opportunities to outflank an opposing disc, then the opponent must give the player a disc to use.

Answer:

Othello is a play written by William Shakespeare which revolves around the story of Othello, who suspects his wife Desdemona of having an affair with Cassio, a young officer of his. His another officer Iago misuses Othello's trust and sows the seeds of jealousy in him as he was envious of Otthello and Cassio and planned to kill both of them. This leads to murder of Desdemona and Cassio. When Emilia, Iago's honest wife came to know of his deeds, she immediately told Othello of all the plans of Iago. She was killed by Iago for ruining his plan. Othello killed himself whereas Iago was punished for his evil deeds.
