If only it didn’t crash!
OthelloNewbie
Game has tons of potential, if you could only make it to the end of a match! I’m a new player trying to learn the strategy and playing against the ‘CPU’ is perfect. If only it didn’t crash mid-game two out of three times. Please please please fix this issue...I’d love to continue playing!!
Phantom moves

Not only is the game been super buggy of late, it has now started making moves that I didn’t make and is not showing the correct places for me to move. The last few months the game will crash every few games right after I make my first move when playing against the computer. It also does the same thing when playing against a live opponent. But today I was playing a live opponent and it started making moves that I didn’t not make. Frankly this is poor given that this is the “Official” game. You’d think you guys had enough resources to make this game work consistently. Perhaps not. In any case, would be nice if it was addressed and resolved.

It’s a game, if you enjoy it then play to pass the time.

I pay for this game “Othello” annually and now they are making me watch commercials...I’m out!
Does not work

Downloaded this yesterday on iPhone X. After starting a game online or against CPU, the board stays blank, and the game never starts. Only thing I can do is play vs human.
Nice Implementation

I like the way that the game plays, and how it matches us up with other players. However, it is frustrating when mid-game, it declares game over and marks it as a loss. This has happened when the score was 40-10 in my favor. If this could be fixed, the game would be a 5/5. 30/12 update: App now disappears mid-game, and randomly freezes. 1/3 update: Has been working great for a few weeks now. Whatever you did took care of all of the problems. 8/8 update: Matchmaking has been very slow the last few weeks, taking 2-3 minutes or longer to find an opponent. Sometimes I have to wait so long that my screensaver kicks in!
The Lag is Killing Me

Every time I have been playing recently the game has frozen on me and then randomly brought me back to my phone’s main screen. It’s getting to the point where it’s really irritating.
Limited moves

Sometimes my moves are blocked and they should not be. They would be legal moves and it does not allow me to make them.
Don’t trust this game

Every single time I’m winning I conveniently run out of moves and the computer gets 5 moves in a row. Every. Single. Time.
