Features overview

The Daisy Reversi 3.1 is a comprehensive electronic opponent for the ancient board game Reversi (also known as Othello®) with many outstanding features:

• A wide range of complexity levels. Daisy Reversi uses a greatly complex algorithm for finding its moves. Daisy Reversi is a worthy opponent for experienced players as well as beginners. Besides very strong high levels and intermediate levels there are very easy levels, a zero level where computer makes its moves arbitrarily (according to the rules, of course), and even negative levels when the computer intentionally loses.
• Automatic complexity level changing. You can force the Daisy Reversi to automatically increase/decrease level after specified number of winnings/losings running.
• Variable number of cells in the game board (this is an extension of classic Reversi). Those who like such games as solitaire and have enough time will like game on the large board (up to 24x24 cells). Those who like to practice logic and have limited time will like to play on the smaller game board (6x6 cells).
• Automatic enforcement of rule maintenance. Daisy Reversi will never allow you to break the rules, and will never break the rules itself.
