Description

Othello is a compilation featuring four games:

Othello - The titular program allows the player to play the board game Othello. In the game two players compete for having the most markers on the board by placing a marker each turn. Enclosed markers are "captured" meaning they switch color.
Math Dice - A pre-school educational game teaching addition.
Concentration - The tile game in which players must find identical tiles in a grid. This program comes in two versions: one uses numbers that need to be matched and the other uses letters. They can be played with two players.
