  • Annoying ads

    I cannot get rid of the ads on iPhone and iPad and cannot see an option even to pay! Very annoying and useless. Hope developer will advise!
  • Not a skill based competition

    The winner is determined by something other than skill or odds. I just counted; my opponent rolled doubles three times in a row. What are the odds of that occurring naturally? It happens frequently with this. If you enjoy a fair competition with fair dice, look further or find a human to compete in a f2f setting using a real board and dice. This game is horrible. The frequency of the ads only builds on a miserable experience. Poorly written app at best.

  • Ads relentlessly blocking game board

    I’ve enjoyed playing this game for a while, but for the last few weeks, the Google ads block the game board. When you click on add choices to make it disappear, it still won’t unblock the content rendering the game useless so don’t bother with this app
  • Favorite among all the cheaters

    If only it wouldn’t freeze up every second game. Please fix. Even after shutting down my iPhone it remains frozen
  • Broken

    It plays videos in the background and can’t exit out. Terrible app
  • Most Adult Backgammon BUT…………

    The game is fine, but gets hijacked by some idiotic matching game. It freezes and users must restart Apple devices to continue until it freezes again. Please fix this. It happens on both iPad and iPhone.
  • A deceptive algorithm.

    The algorithm for this program favors all those with a ‘D’ status - Ds will win the first roll 99% of the time, and their first roll will be one of the ideal combinations (6/6, 6/1, 6/5, 5/3,…etc) 95% of the time. Also, in the final moves, the Ds will throw the exact combination of numbers to win - 90% of the time. There are many more issues that prove that this game is manipulated to favor ‘certain’ players, without skill involved. I will not waste any more time with this program for a game I love!

  • Dice are rigged

    Have had multiple same rolls in a row. Had one game where 6 doubles were rolled in a row. The chances of that are 46,656 to 1! I have deleted the app. Don’t bother downloading this one. Go find a better backgammon game.
  • Rigged dice

    I have now played over 1000 games against the computer. I see in the statistics that the doubles are about the same in number but when the computer gets a double ,it’s at a more advantageous point in the game. Also when the computer is coming off the bar there is an uncanny ability to hit my blots.
  • Too many computer doubles

    The app is great to learn but there are too many doubles for the computer plays.
