Abstract. This paper discusses four-person reversi called Yonin. Reversi is a game also called othello that is played by two players on an 8x8 board using 64 pieces of two-colour (Black and White) disks.  Yonin is an extension of the two-person reversi to four-person reversi that can be played by four players. Point in the extension is the restriction of the possible moves and the judge for the winner. The design concept of Yonin is quite simple and may be applicable to other domains.  In this study, we outline the design concept and consider the characteristics of the game Yonin.
