Hamster has confirmed this week’s Arcade Archives game on Nintendo Switch will be Othello. It’ll be ready to go tomorrow, February 20.
Othello, based on the classic board game of the same name, was released by Success in 1984. For those unfamiliar with the game, players place white and black stones alternately, and by sandwiching them vertically, horizontally, or diagonally, they flip their opponent’s stones over and make them their own. The game features evaluation and rewind functions to enable greater strategy and practice.
Arcade Archives Othello will cost $7.99 / €6.99 / £6.29 on the Nintendo eShop. You can find coverage of past games in the series here.
