# iagno(1)

a GNOME strategy game

## NAME

iagno - a GNOME strategy game

## SYNOPSIS

**iagno** \[ *OPTION*... \]

## DESCRIPTION

**iagno**, part of the *gnome-games* package, is a computer version of the game Reversi, more popularly called Othello. **Iagno** is a two player strategy game similar to Go. The board is 8 by 8 with tiles that are black on one side and white on the other side. The object of **Iagno** is to flip as many of your opponent's tiles to your color as possible without your opponent flipping your tiles. This is done by trapping your opponent's tiles between two tiles of your own color.
