It is one thing to get players to interact, but it is another to get player react to each other on the same screen like OLO does. The goal is simple enough: keeping more pieces (called "OLO" in the game) in your area more than your opponent, but surprisingly employs a wide range of approaches and amazing depths. From straight-forward fair-play of precisely placing your pieces to stealing high value pieces from your opponent, all strategies are valid and carry their corresponding risk vs. reward characteristics. The minimalist yet strong-in-style and functional audiovisual is the extra flavour that elevates OLO from being a simply innovative experiment to an outright great and worthy game of its own.
