What is the best strategy for Reversi?

Prioritize capturing the four corner squares — once taken, they cannot be flipped and give permanent board control. Avoid placing discs on squares adjacent to empty corners, as this gives your opponent access to the corner. In the early game, keep your disc count low to limit your opponent"s available moves.
