Here’s an overview of the game, via its Steam page:
About
Zero Nine Reversi is a board game that puts a bold twist on the classic Reversi. Each stone has HP.
The game includes two ways to play: “Classic”, an in-depth single-player challenge, and “Online”, where you choose a character and compete against other players.
Classic
In normal Reversi, throwing a stone is the end of the story. In Zero Nine Reversia stone turned over loses 1 VP. When its HP reaches zero, the stone is purified and disappears from the board. This simple change turns every match into a battle of attrition, where positioning, timing and resource management matter as much as territory.
Typical features include:
- Reversi based on HP – Stones have 0 to 9 VP. The overturned stones weaken and eventually disappear. Every movement reverberates at all levels.
- More than 40 stories – Earn ranking points to unlock stories of angels and fallen angels, complete with character illustrations and original films.
- Multiple card sizes – From the compact 6×6 Mini to the classic 8×8 Reversi via the cross-shaped 12×12 Annexation.
- Special rules – Game-changing rules such as Solo Enoch, Metatron’s Wave and Gariel’s Light.
- Five AI difficulty levels – From EASY to DEAD. High-level AI punishes every mistake.
- Daily Challenge – A new challenge every 12 hours, with a fixed board, HP and rules.
- Online leaderboards – Compete against players from around the world on a shared scoring system across all platforms.
- A world rich in stories – Set in the world of El Shaddaifeaturing beloved characters such as Enoch, Lucifel and Michael.
- Keyboard and mouse support – Full support for keyboard navigation using arrow keys and stone previews on mouseover.
Online
A versus mode where you choose a character and fight. In addition to stone HP, it adds “BUMP & BURST” rules and a unique ability for each character.
Online features include:
- Bump and Burst – When you turn over a stone, its HP decreases depending on your character’s attack power (ATK). A stone whose HP reaches 0 shatters and frees its square. A single gesture can turn the situation around.
- More than 40 characters – Each has its own HP, attack power and unique ability. Charged, automatic, conditional and more: each type of ability changes the way you fight.
- Online Battles – Compete against players from around the world in Random Match or invite friends with a room code. Your record and ranking are saved.
- Team Battle – A four-player two-on-two mode. Work with your ally to take control of the board.
- Also play offline – Fight the CPU, play two players on the same screen or play Team Battle. Choose an 8×8, 10×10 or 12×12 board.
- Archive – Spend the gold you earn in battle to unlock characters, titles, effects and backgrounds.
- Daily Challenge – Complete daily tasks to earn points and claim rewards.
