Very fun
Great game
The worst program for gambling.
It gives only unwanted numbers to user and only the most wanted numbers to computer. So, you dont have any chance to win.
Its waste if time to download this application.

Ok game
Dice rolls are very unfair. Ai always rolls what is needed to win or land on unprotected stones.
Not random rolls
I was enjoying this game on the Medium level, but once I stepped up to the Hard level it became apparent that the rolls were not random. The AI gets the roll it needs WAY too often. I don’t understand why game designers think this makes the game more enjoyable-it doesn’t. It just makes it more frustrating, causing me to delete the app. This means I won’t be watching any more of the ads. Fairly counterproductive, in my opinion.

Uses a nonrandom number generator function
Be prepared for this app to 'cheat' on the "expert" level through non-random dice-rolling output, both for itself as well as the opponent (you) - not just occasionally, but consistently. It's an intensely well-done, fun (and simultaneously irritating) app.
Best backgammon game ever
I love this game. The speed and the strategy are on point. Everyone should download and play!
Love it!
Addictive. Loved it on my laptop, great to have it on my phone now.
great graphics
the AI on this game is great and the varying levels of difficulty are challenging to beat
Still not working
Had same problem as previous poster. Advise from App developer said, delete and re-download. Worked perfectly. Glad to have this old friend back!
Still doesn't work
I have latest OS and the app is stuck in the intro picture where when you tap it's supposed to start the game. Nothing starts!
Not iOS7 Compatible
Since iOS7 came out, the game continuously locks up. This was my time waister of choice, now it's getting deleted.
Please update for iOS7!
Since I upgraded to iOS 7, whenever I am playing the computer and can't move, the whole game freezes up. Please fix! I have been playing this for years and need my backgammon!
Does not work with iOS7!
It will start and play, but hangs when doubling, when player (not computer) can't move, and always at the end of the game.

Unfair and inconsistent game, computer will basically cheat & throw doubles (6 in a row in one case) as soon as the stakes are raised past 4.. Frustrating! Had to delete it!
backgammon by george
this game is like most (all) i have played....it cheats! it ALWAYS gets the roll to take you out. At end game it consistantly gets doubles to kick your butt. Now, I don't expect to win every game but when the rolls are stacked against you it gets very frustrating. I have now given up on all apps for this game as they ALL cheat in the AI's favor. I would give it less than 1 star if I could.

Picky buyer
I love backgammon but never found a decent game for Ninentdo DS. So, when I got my new ipod touch I started looking for this game right away. It has great graphics and I do not find playing against the computer to be one-sided. Glad I got this version, very nice!
Great A.I.
Does everything I want in a Backgammon game. Great A.I. for the computer opponent.
Dice simulation is rigged
As noted by others, I have the same observations about the dice simulation. I suggest adding a dice counter feature that counts the number of combinations rolled by each player each game. (1:1-0, 1:2-4, 1:3-2, etc). It would also be better if the points could be reset.
Cheats cheats cheats
Turn it on "difficult" and all of a sudden the game starts rolling itself a whole mess of doubles. Meanwhile, you start rolling 1-2 over and over again. The cheating is just brazen. Not worth the money.
Cheater!
This thing so obviously cheats. Why is it so hard to find a game that just randomly rolls the dice?
