A timeless strategy game cleverly disguised as a book. PlayBook’d – Reversi lives on your shelf, opens into a beautiful magnetic board, and stores all pieces neatly inside — no loose parts, no mess.
🎲 About the Game
Reversi (also known as Othello) is a fast-paced strategy game for two players, where every move can flip the board in your favor. Chain flips, smart positioning, and tactical thinking make it endlessly replayable.
This is the 7th addition to the PlayBook’d collection and one of my personal favourites — nothing beats flipping a long line of discs in one move.
📖 Disguised as a Book
When closed, it looks like a stylish book that blends naturally into a bookshelf or coffee table.
Open the magnetic cover and it unfolds into a full 8×8 Reversi board with dedicated slots to hold all discs securely.
The cover swivels open smoothly, allowing easy access to the pieces while keeping everything compact and tidy.
🧲 Improved Magnetic System
⚠️ Important note:
This version uses stronger magnets than the first six PlayBook’d books.
✔ No rubber feet needed
✔ Stronger closure
✔ Better stability during play
✔ Pieces stay secure during storage
This upgrade makes the book feel more solid, premium, and practical.
