Reversi Quest is a turn based strategy RPG game based on Reversi, where the player fights through dungeons using the Sugoroku dice system. Reversi Quest was developed by Yokogosystems and was sponsored by Microsoft’s ID@Xbox program.

Reversi Quest is a tactical RPG with unique battle system based on the game of Reversi. Just like the original Reversi, the battle is simple but deep and you will never know who is the winner until the very last moment.

Spells play a key for battles. Spells cannot be used directly to attack the enemy but spells, such as breaking the panel, forcing the enemy to pass a turn, and summoning a special panel, can be used to change the battle situation drastically. Use spells effectively and you will be able to make the battle in your favor.

Field map is in a simple sugoroku board game style and the game progresses as players roll a dice and move forward on the board map. There are various kinds of dices and you should use different ones based on your situations. Things happen based on where you stop on the map and these include earning units, equipment, spells and golds, starting battles, recovering HP, etc.

Also, if all conditions are met, you might be able to find a secret way to obtain a powerful equipment or a special item!
