Loaded Dice

Playing level 10 over and over, there are HIGHLY suspicious patterns, like rolling double fives or double sixes right after the ai lands on you. There’s no way to change the difficulty to a lower, more fair level, so even if I’m wrong and these are somehow random events, I can ONLY play against the hardest game mode…or I can wipe my app data and start back at level 1…then, eventually progress to 10 with the loaded dice…rinse and repeat. Terrible experience.

Most unfair game on the App Store

Just lost three games in a row again to manipulated dice. There is absolutely no way I would stake my life on it. These rolls are not random.

This developer is delusional to think that the rolls are random. I don’t lose 10 games in a row with rent roll.

When playing another “live“ player in Internet mode, there is no such thing as random rolls. The computer uses dice manipulation to get the rolls It needs to win. You’re not playing a live player, you’re playing against the computer. The computer gets off the bar in one to two turns every single time, unless home is blocked.

Here’s another proof that the game cheats. Whenever I suggest x2, it can continue with its play. When the computer suggest X2 I have to wait until I accept it before I continue my play.

Love the Ap

I have the add free version and love it! I play online against random opponents or against my husband on our own devices. Highly recommend!

Not random

I have gotten to point that I can predict the dice rolls

Rig

This game is so bad. It’s fun to play and enjoy. But so rig. They say it’s not but the odd are that it real close to it.

Nice game

I’ve enjoyed playing this game for years

So many Fixes

There is no wand changing the difficulty level once you have uncooked a higher one. So sick and tired of AI just helping the bot.

4.2 stars

What a joke ! This backgammon is so bad and stupid it’s pathetic!

Best game

Great app

Great app to improve your game and play with real people with a fair dice !!!

Game Balance

This game has a great UI and good visuals but the game is not balanced. If you are beating your opponent, four times out of five, the game will give the perfect dice roll for them to make a comeback. it's very hard to lock them out of their side of the board even when you have 5+ pieces of theirs in your homebase. Also when there is one possible combination of a dice roll in order to make a certain move then again, four times out of five if not more, the opponent will roll the specific dice combination. The developers claim the dice rolls are random but they are not. The game has to have SBMM and will reward the weaker opponents with the impossible comebacks and wins. I wish I could claim this was a great game but unfortunately the so-called random dice rolls really put a damper on my positive review. If you think I'm exaggerating any of this review read some of the other reviews and make up your own mind.

Better without

Definitely worth the couple dollars to lose the ads

Rigged?

Good game with quick play. As you get to higher levels, the dice algorithm is insanely skewed. I have played my whole life and the way this rolls for computer and hit s more often than not with what is needed, is simply not natural, unfortunate to rig a game that is more about skill. Kind of sad. Gonna look for another one that is more natural and honest.

Good layout

Good layout marred by an irritating scoring system in online mode and the lack of redoubling across all modes. Redoubling is the essence of backgammon and it’s a mystery why these developers haven’t included it.

It cheats

We all joke that games cheat but this one is shameless about it. I have never seen so many “lucky” rolls for a computer and “unlucky” rolls for the player in all my years of gaming. And don’t get me started on the doubles advantage. What is the probability a computer will roll doubles three times in a row? Find another game, hopefully that one will cheat less.

These dice are so rigged, it’s disgusting.

Pro Tip: play this game with the understanding that the dice are INSANELY rigged. Once you play enough, you’ll be able to tell who the algorithm favors to win after the first few rolls. This goes for both online opponents or computer opponents. And if you thought playing online opponents was rigged bad, playing the computer is absolutely LUDACRIS..

Adikus to-do list for online play:

1. Make dice NOT rigged.
2. Have doubling cube available from the start of game.
3. Have back-and-forth play with doubling cube.
4. Should eliminate the option to remove the doubling cube before gameplay.
5. Be able to re-play online opponent option.
6. Have rated rooms. Players can only enter rooms at their rating or above. The cap on the spread should be 100 points at most. Example: A 1500-1600 room. Next is 1600-1700. Etc…
7. Make dice not rigged.
8. Make dice not rigged.
9. Make dice not rigged.
10. Make dice not rigged.
DICE ARE 100% RIGGED. Don’t deny this like your previous negative review responses… just make the dice authentically random. Any positive reviews on this game can’t be taken seriously.. I refuse to believe they are sincere. Rigged reviews.
