Sorry but that's just inappropriate for games such as this. Do better guys. ### 2/5 — Frustrated *2026-08-25, version 1.12.0* The games are so rigged; the computer rolls all the correct numbers needed for each game, and only rolls small numbers for the human and rarely rolls the numbers needed to take out an opponents open pieces. I’ve deleted this game before because it’s so rigged; I may be doing that again very soon. ### 3/5 — Rolls not so Random *2026-08-23, version 1.12.0* Enjoyable to a point. You begin to notice and predict the computers roll. And it’s not just bad luck. When you can predict what the computer will roll then it takes the fun out of it. ### 4/5 — J’aime beaucoup *2026-08-23, version 1.12.0* J’aimerais que tous les triangles, les cases, ne soient pas de la même couleur comme on le voit sur les vrais jeux. ### 2/5 — Can’t select difficulty level *2026-08-22, version 1.12.0* I had been play for many months and had ability to select difficulty level. Then that option disappeared. My friend on same version still has that option. The support team said features are rolled out to users at different times which makes no sense since we are on same version. I’m stuck in easy mode and it’s super boring. ### 3/5 — Too many ads *2026-08-22, version 1.12.0* I play many games from this publisher. This one is frustrating with ads. Every 2-ish minutes. if you decide to make coffee or answer a text, you may play a single turn between 2 ads. ### 3/5 — Questionable dice odds *2026-08-22, version 1.12.0* The dice odds are almost definitely not random. The computer and the “online player” often times get the exact roll they need and FAR MORE doubles than you do. It is one thing if it happens on occasion, but repeatedly makes it extremely suspicious. The game is otherwise nicely designed and smooth, UI is nice. But truly, the dice odds are not random, so don’t feel frustrated if you feel that you are not winning! ### 2/5 — ads every few rolls *2026-08-22, version 1.12.0* Ads are one thing to have in between games. This one plays an ad every couple rolls of the dice. ### 2/5 — Rigged *2026-08-22, version 1.12.0* Fun game and great to play for practicing strategy, but it’s totally rigged toward the opponent. The opponent gets better dice rolls, more doubles, and every possible opportunity to hit blots. When my checker is stuck in the opponents inner board I always roll doubles that I can’t play because I’m blocked. Happens everytime. Very predictable and frustrating. Game is rigged! ### 4/5 — Ads *2026-08-22, version 1.12.0* I enjoy the game but hate the ads! ### 2/5 — Good except for “loaded” dice *2026-08-22, version 1.12.0* Decent game, but very frustrating due to the apparent ‘loaded’ dice in favor of the opponent. I have tracked rolls and over 80% of the time if the human player leaves a piece uncovered, the bot will get a roll to hit the piece. The ### 2/5 — Rigged!! *2026-08-21, version 1.11.0* If you play solo it is completely rigged to the computer winning. It’s a bummer and takes the fun away ### 1/5 — Fun game *2026-08-20, version 1.11.0* The ads are very annoying, they just stay there for a long time and stop you from playing i dont mind the ads but please make them go away and not linger for so long. The opponent is a novice has no skill, it’s a waste of time ### 1/5 — Ads in the middle of the game *2026-08-18, version 1.11.0* Seriously. Super lame. Ads in the middle of games. Greedy and super annoying. ### 3/5 — Wish *2026-08-18, version 1.11.0* Love the app, just wish I could play friends ### 1/5 — Ads *2026-08-17, version 1.11.0* The ads they put on other games absolutely suck. ### 2/5 — Unfair *2026-08-17, version 1.11.0* The computer rolls are 95% exactly what it needs to get the player’s pieces, no matter what the necessary roll is. Every single game I play, it happens over and over and over. Adding difficulty levels would be good, but also just making it more fair so it’s enjoyable. I’d love for “hard mode” to be that the computer has excellent strategy and we both have actual random rolls. What’s the fun in playing when it feels like an unfair advantage every single game? ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Not Fare *2026-08-29, version 1.12.0* I have noticed that the opponent when they have moved to do, it doesn’t do it ,stops and it doesn’t help you to win the game. It is fixed game that makes you to loos even though you’re very good on it, ### 1/5 — Too many ads *2026-08-28, version 1.12.0* 3 ads per game is too many, takes up too much time ### 1/5 — BS *2026-08-25, version 1.12.0* It’s amazing how often your opponent gets doubles which gives them a huge advantage and then also comes up with perfect rolls to help their situation. It’s a terrible game if you want something “fair” but the ratio of double rolls is waaaaaaaaay lopsided. ### 1/5 — Это обман, бот всегда выигрывает, не интересно *2026-08-25* Не интересно играть, бот всегда выигрывает, даже если ты почти выиграл, то тебе выпадают 1 и 2 подряд, а боту выпадают дубли 5 и 6 подряд и он тебя обыгрывает в любом случае. Эта игра обман! **Developer response:** Hello! Мы понимаем, что игра с ботом может быть не таким увлекательным опытом, как хотелось бы, и это действительно может вызывать разочарование. Хотя может показаться, что бот получает более удачные броски, все броски генерируются случайным образом, и бот использует вероятностные стратегии для оптимизации своих ходов. Мы проверим ваши замечания и надеемся, что с практикой и новыми стратегиями вам удастся улучшить свои результаты. Спасибо за ваш отзыв! ### 1/5 — Too many ads and increasing *2026-08-25, version 1.12.0* I love this game and have been playing for ages which I have thoroughly enjoyed and would ideally like to continue but the ads have become impossible. At first the ads were manageable but as time has gone on they have ruined the game. This morning an ad played, I took my turn and then another ad came on so I closed the game down and was tempted to hit delete but instead I decided to write my first ever review to tell you how disappointing this is and to hear your feedback. ### 1/5 — Why? *2026-08-24, version 1.12.0* At least the adverts don’t ruin it completely. The game cheats, it’s the only way it can win. Rather then making it harder, it just gives itself doubles to win, ALWAYS throwing the right number to come back on, always a double six for you when you can’t use it, unfair numbers of doubles, it gets a double every time you do etc. Annoying rather then anything as you have to go through the whole game, even after you’ve watched it (for the umpteenth time) throw perfect dice to come back on and take you off. Better than some I’ve played but utterly pointless if you actually want a fair game of backgammon. ### 1/5 — Rigged *2026-08-23, version 1.12.0* This game is wrecked up to a point of being predictable by me. Not worth playing. it is a simple Backgammon game yet it’s full of ads, ads in middle of your game multiple times, so lame. ### 1/5 — Cheats so much! *2026-08-23, version 1.12.0* Every update makes it more obvious that the game decides it will win before the game even starts. Originally, I could win often (I’m an avid player) then I could only win my doubling if I was 30 pips ahead. Now it doesn’t matter. The game gets EXACTLY THE COMBINATION IT NEEDS. Doesn’t matter how unlikely or impossible. If I don’t double as soon as I’m ahead, I will lose to the games unethical advantage. Beyond that, it’s OBVIOUS that none of the creators know backgammon rules or scoring. This could’ve been a fun game but you ruined it BTW - ALWAYS SORR REVIEWS BY MOST RECENT. It gives a truer picture ### 1/5 — Rigged. DO NOT DOWNLOAD. *2026-08-23, version 1.12.0* As others have reviewed this game is rigged and never lets you win. I have played backgammon my entire life but can never win in this app. It’s infuriating and clearly AI trash. Also it didn’t used to be this bad! It’s gotten worse in the last few years. I hope the developers of this game never win a round of backgammon for the rest of their lives. Don’t mess with this AI TRASH. Let’s all get off our phones. ### 1/5 — Too many ads *2026-08-21, version 1.12.0* Ads during games are horrible. And how is it computer gets 5 sets of doubles and I get none ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — New option for Daly game *2026-08-31, version 1.12.0* Make on line play with any people ### 5/5 — Too Many Doubles! *2026-08-30, version 1.12.0* That’s All! Just too many Doubles turn up! ### 5/5 — Aron *2026-08-29, version 1.12.0* No advertising! Wonderful! ### 5/5 — Love/Hate *2026-08-15, version 1.11.0* I love this game, but I hate all the adds and some of them I can't even exit out of without shutting my phone completely down. ### 5/5 — Divertissant mais… *2026-08-15, version 1.11.0* Mais trop d’interruptions commerciales ### 5/5 — Beyond the Roll of the Dice *2026-08-14, version 1.11.0* Fun — and the opponent is a worthy competitor. Lovely to see the different strategies ### 5/5 — Redtree *2026-08-13, version 1.11.0* Good game ### 5/5 — Great Game *2026-08-07, version 1.11.0* Learn the game, it’s fun and challenging. You won’t know unless you try it. ### 5/5 — Thank you *2026-08-05, version 1.11.0* Good stuff ### 5/5 — Don *2026-07-31, version 1.11.0* Lot fun, haven’t played this game in years and I’m happy to be playing it again --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
