Learning how to play Reversi is simple, but mastering it takes practice. Here's a comprehensive guide to the rules and some expert strategies:

Basic Rules:

1. The game begins with 4 pieces placed in the center of the board - 2 white and 2 black, arranged diagonally

2. Players alternate turns placing one piece of their color on the board

3. To make a valid move, your piece must flank one or more of your opponent's pieces in a straight line (horizontal, vertical or diagonal)

4. All flanked opponent pieces are flipped to your color

Winning the Game:

- The player with the most pieces of their color on the board when the game ends wins

- The game ends when the board is full or no valid moves remain for either player

Advanced Strategies:

- Control the corners: Corner pieces cannot be flipped, making them strategically valuable

- Limit opponent's options: Try to leave your opponent with few or no valid moves

- Balance offense and defense: Don't just focus on flipping pieces - consider board position

- Watch the piece count: Sometimes it's better to have fewer pieces to limit opponent's options

For beginners, focus on learning the basic rules first. As you improve, start incorporating these advanced strategies to dominate your opponents.
