A couple of days ago I downloaded Othello Reversi for my HTC Android Eris from the Android Marketplace.  A quick install and I was ready to play a childhood favorite.

When you start the game you’re taken to a control panel.  It’s a little simple looking but you really don’t need a fancy screen to choose which color you want to be right?  You also have the option to play against someone else, watch a demo or exit the game.

Once you select a color the game starts.  Along the bottom are the scores and whose turn it is.  You can also replay a move if you missed what just happened.

Game play is just like the board game.  I’ve only played a few games but they seem to last a little less than five minutes.

Overall, a good time killer that’s simple to play.  I give three and a half bananas.
