Hey, William.
Yes these two games are accessible, and yes all you have to do is say a

Hi Quentin,
Cool! Isn't Reversi the same thing as Backgammon?
If so I'd definitely want to check that out. I haven't played a good
game of Backgammon in years, and I haven't found any accessible games
on par with mainstream Backgammon games.
