bug when someone can’t bear off
Great game for playing online. But latest version has a bug that ends the connection to your opponent when someone can’t roll because the home board is blocked and they can’t bear off. If I have my home board blocked and opponent can’t bear off, after I have opened the home board and they can roll, they never roll again and I win by timeout. And whenever opponent blocks their home board and I cannot roll, after opponent rolls once and if I still cannot bear off, they never roll again and I win by timeout.Show lessue1986
Ads stop the app
Why would you use ads that freeze the app? After each game is an ad. Most of the time the ad does not have a way to close it, requiring to close and reopen the app. It is too frustrating and I will be searching for this game by a developer that wants me to stay on the app.
What are you thinking? Is this your way to limit how often or long I play?Show lessviking7686

Hello, We thank you for your review and apologize for the ads. We know they are annoying but they are what makes it possible to maintain the app free for our users. In fact, they should not be appearing as you described. Could you please send us mail at info@appgeneration.com with more details (such as the name of its advertising network)? Regards, support teamGreat game
This game is fair and better than others I have playedblue-lady-bird
Used to be good but now awful
As of a few days ago all roles are duplicated for 2 player game. Meaning if the first person rolls 5, 2 the opponent then rolls 5,2. And that just goes on the whole game.
Also, I paid for no adds but adds have started popping up again. Don’t buy.Eric in Ottawa July 2024

Hello. Thank you for reporting these issues. We will release a new version today that should fix these bugs. We are sorry for the inconvenience. Thank youI like this game
This game is made for players that like to play.
The chat is nice as you can communicate well, no direct
statements just pre selected, no ability for personal attacks that
ruin the play.freedompimp
Loud ads
Listen this used to be a cool app, but the ads play forever.
Too much competition, I repeatedly requested developers to respect our time, obnoxiously placed during a game gets players frustrated.WICKEDWANDA1

Hello. We are truly sorry you had a bad experience. In fact, ads should not be appearing as you described. Could you please send us an email to info@appgeneration.com with a link to the ad's landing page if you see it again? We are working to block these ads. We have made the die 100% random to make sure that the app is as fair as possible. We want our users to enjoy playing! Thank you. Best regardsDeleted app!
Good game but be careful the app forces you to take moves you don’t want to! Won’t allow you to move freely! V annoying! Unfair advantage to computer / app. Deleted app!blah blah timmy

Recently I was at a point where I couldn’t lose the game so I elected to put in auto mode. When I later went to start a new game I saw the I lost the game that I thought I couldn’t lose because I didn’t make a move in the allotted time. Never use the auto mode if you want to win.
The game gets worse with each update.Show lessjosse129homez
Very Good App,,,, paid version is worth it!
I’ve had a few issues with this App and the ads freezing. I decided to pay to have ads removed and I’m glad I did. It’s wonderful to just be able to open the App and Play without having to wait for ads to run. I’ve contacted customer service a couple of times and the response is quick and effective. This App is now one of the best there is to play backgammon.Show lessKatzma

If you experience any other problem, please let us know. Thank you for your support and for playing! Best regardsRigged
It’s so frustrating to play games rigged against you. The amount of times the house gets doubles or the exact roll needed is outrageous. At least this version doesn’t have ads popping up during the game, only between rounds.Littlesaintina

Hello, thanks for your comment. Our dice are 100% random and our algorithm does not favour specific players, as we want the game to be fair and fun to all. In a Backgammon game, sometimes we are lucky and sometimes we are less lucky :) but when we play a lot of games, the best player always wins more often! I hope you keep playing Backgammon. Good luck! Yours sincerely.
