Odin's Reversi is the classic game of turning the tables, played with Viking shields. Place a shield so that it closes a line of your opponent's shields, and every shield in that line turns to your side. One move can change the whole board, so no lead is safe until the last shield is down. Play on three boards and add any of six house rules for a new game every time.
One price, the whole game. No in-app purchases, no third-party ads, and no tracking.
PLAY TOGETHER, YOUR WAY
Live online: challenge a friend and trade moves in real time.
Turn-based online: play at your own pace without being online together.
Nearby: connect device to device and play without a Game Center account.
Pass & Play: share one screen and take turns.
In a live or nearby rematch the sides swap, so nobody keeps the first move.
Online matches use Game Center. Turn notifications help you keep up, and a Home Screen widget on iPhone and iPad shows when you have moves waiting.
THREE BOARDS, ONE RULE
Place a shield so that a straight line of your opponent's shields — across, down, or on a diagonal — is closed at both ends by yours, and the whole line turns. If you can't place, you pass; when neither side can, the side with more shields wins.
Quick: six by six, a short game for the youngest players.
Classic: eight by eight, the board the whole world plays.
Grand: ten by ten, with room for long plans and corners worth fighting for.
SIX HOUSE RULES
Runestones: a few runestones are set on the board before play. Nothing lands on them, and no line runs through them.
World Serpent: the edges join, as the serpent circles the world, so lines wrap around and there are no corners.
Loki's Game: the fewest shields wins.
Norns' Opening: every game starts from a dealt, balanced opening.
Odin's Favor: give one side up to four corners before the first move.
Victorian Rules: the 1880s rules, with an empty center and a limited supply of shields.
Turn any of them on for new games from the House Rules screen.
VIKING SHIELDS THAT TURN
Every piece is a Viking round shield, light on one face and dark on the other, and every shield carries its own design: ravens, wolves, dragons, longships and more. Pick a look in Settings: painted, realistic, Viking art, basic, or rune coins. Then choose your board: green leather, oak and iron, or engraved cherry.
FIND YOUR CHALLENGE
Play solo against four computer strengths: Easy, Medium, Hard, and Expert. The coach suggests a move and warns when one would hand your opponent a corner, undo lets you try again in local play, and every board has a How to Play guide and Video Instructions.
MAKE YOUR PROGRESS COUNT
Earn XP, climb the ranks from Wanderer to Grand King, and pursue 22 achievements and 9 Game Center leaderboards, including a leaderboard for each board. Bigger boards earn more.
Local games save automatically, so you can take a break and return to an unfinished game.
A PLACE AT THE BOARD
Green leather, oak and gold bring the Longhouse look of Odin's Checkers to Reversi, on iPhone, iPad, Apple TV, and Mac, in 50 languages, with VoiceOver and Dynamic Type.
Made by the team behind Odin's Checkers, Squared², Odin's Tic-Tac-Toe, Odin's Viking Chess, and Odin's Drop 4+. The only promotions you'll see are for our own games.
Place a shield. Turn a line. Hold the corners.
