Kyuukyoku no Othello
Success • 1990


Challenge your strategic thinking in Kyuukyoku no Othello, a two-player tabletop game released by Success in 1990. This arcade adaptation of the classic Reversi (also known as Othello) presents players with a grid where they must strategically place discs to outmaneuver their opponent and claim territory. By flanking opposing pieces, you flip them to your color, ultimately aiming to control more of the board than your rival. The game’s title translates from Japanese as "Ultimate Othello," suggesting an advanced or refined take on the traditional ruleset. Two players face off directly, competing for dominance through careful planning and tactical foresight. Kyuukyoku no Othello utilizes a V30 main processor alongside Zilog Z80 and Yamaha YM2203 sound chips to deliver its gameplay experience. This arcade version offers a digital rendering of a familiar pastime, providing an engaging head-to-head challenge for players who enjoy tabletop strategy games.
