Magic Reversi is probably the best computer Reversi game I found in web. Lots of difficulty levels (it's hard to beat comp even on kiddy level and even if you know basic rules), great graphics, 3 different sets of pieces, possibility of playing online with your friend. And amazing playability - the game glues to the screen for hours.
Reversi (or Othello) is one of the first games I learned, but not one I'll ever say that I've mastered. I can certainly beat the computer on the easier difficulty levels, but you need both strategy and foresight to really excel at this board game. Good game for those among us that prefer something non-violent, or something to challenge the mind.
I had fun playing it while waiting for a burn process to finish, and that is the use that this game has. Its the same as playing solitaire on your computer - ONLY BETTER!
I still use it to entertain myself whenever a tedious task has to be run in the background on my computer. I even installed it at work so I can play it down there to.
