Some ads are a bit long or for dumb games, but it’s free to play at least. ( turns out to be quite additive too ) I find the game play on difficult level to be just right for me. ### 4/5 — Game *2026-08-29, version 4.6.7* Adds breakup games inappropriately and are getting longer and more intrusive. Shame really ### 2/5 — Just another hack app *2026-08-04, version 4.6.7* This one isn’t worth the aggregation. Where other ad supported games play an ad between rounds, this one plays one every four or five rolls of the dice, and subverting every other roll. you sit through 5 or 6 in one game. And the computer rolls are ridiculous. Computer gets great rolls and the sucker rolls shoot game in game out. piss off on this one. ### 3/5 — I Play this regularly *2026-07-29, version 4.6.7* Enjoy the game however the algorithm for dice rolls could be better (randomized) ### 3/5 — Computer biased *2026-07-29, version 4.6.7* The computer ALWAYS rolls to put you on the rail. It takes many rolls for you to get back on the board but not for the computer to get back on. ### 5/5 — Great app *2026-07-26, version 4.6.7* Hours of fun ### 5/5 — Great fun *2026-07-25, version 4.6.7* Just love playing this game. ### 4/5 — Backgammon *2026-07-25, version 4.6.7* It works fine. ### 2/5 — Frequent hassles *2026-07-25, version 4.6.7* Frequent problems connecting with friends to start a game ### 4/5 — I’m very happy w this game *2026-07-23, version 4.6.7* It would be better w/o the ad interruptions. But I am a beginner, and it is helping me to learn and understand the game. ### 4/5 — Great game *2026-07-20, version 4.6.7* Brilliant ### 3/5 — Great game! *2026-07-20, version 4.6.7* Love the game. Too many ads too close together. Will be looking for a different Backgammon game. ### 5/5 — Backgammon Classic *2026-07-11, version 4.6.7* Sweet ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Invasive Ads *2026-09-07, version 4.6.7* This was my favorite, but the incessant ads begin as soon as app is opened and they roll right through, one after another and you can’t shut the game down until they’ve finished. Having to click through each ad between 4 and 6 times is ridiculous. And how come we get an ad after every 2 rolls during game play? We can’t enjoy uninterrupted game play. I’m done the game. The ad interruptions are ridiculous. ### 1/5 — Too many ads! *2026-08-21, version 4.6.7* This game has way too many ads and it’s def one side. The computer cheats like crazy. ### 1/5 — UNPLAYABLE *2026-08-19, version 4.6.7* Sadly this excellent game is broken. More ads than time spent on playing. Do not use. ### 1/5 — Use to be a great game *2026-07-25, version 4.6.7* This app use to be good but now you can’t get any others players to play online …….i have tried all kinds of different days and times and still can’t find players. I have had this app for years. This started months ago. It was the best backgammon app but not anymore ### 1/5 — Needs More Excitement and Better Design *2026-07-22, version 4.6.7* I was hoping this classic card game would be more fun and engaging, but it didn't hold my interest. The gameplay felt repetitive, and I wasn't satisfied with the overall design and presentation. I think the app could benefit from a more polished interface and features that make the experience more exciting. Hopefully future updates will improve it. ### 1/5 — It used to be fun *2026-07-13, version 4.6.7* I used to love this game. Now it sucks. Yes it had ads, but it was between the games. Now you get an ad that pops up about every 60 seconds and the Backgammon pieces are not aligned on the board anymore. It doesn’t look like they’ve updated it in over a year so chances are it’s been abandoned by the developers. Kind of sad. ### 1/5 — Computer Advantage *2026-07-10, version 4.6.7* Enjoying the game but noticed the computer has the advantage. For the some reason the dice often rolls the exact number to catch the only chip left by itself. The computer rolls more doubles than the player. I just played and the computer had doubles for 5 rolls and then repeatedly rolled exactly what it needed to land on my piece. I guess they no longer want people to play the free app since they run ads every minute. It’s been 3 days straight. I deleted the game. ### 1/5 — To many ads *2026-07-10, version 4.6.7* To many ads pop up every two to three moves ### 1/5 — AI doubles whenever threatened. *2026-06-23, version 4.6.7* No choice of color, cannot use dice consecutively-must use 1st roll always as a standalone move—cannot reverse the dice roll. AI will roll doubles in an inordinate frequency to close out the game. ### 1/5 — Ads During Play *2026-06-18, version 4.6.7* I get having ads, I DO NOT get ads during play! I forgot you moved to that nonsense, goodbye again!! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Amateur *2026-09-08, version 4.6.7* Keeps me thinking which is what us oldsters need. ### 5/5 — Backgammon *2026-08-31, version 4.6.7* Great entertainment! One can pass lots of hours! ### 5/5 — Backgammon *2026-08-26, version 4.6.7* Nice challenging and relaxing game ### 5/5 — Good game! *2026-08-24, version 4.6.7* Good game. ### 5/5 — Haroula’s *2026-08-21, version 4.6.7* I love this game I’ll would like more doubles please .more doubles ### 5/5 — …and DONE! *2026-08-17, version 4.6.7* Ads ads ads ads ads ads…need I say more? I like the game but not where I spend more time watching ads than playing the game. I’m done. Goodbye. ### 5/5 — Backgammon *2026-08-15, version 4.6.7* Excellent game ### 5/5 — momma *2026-08-13, version 4.6.7* love the game since day one years ago ### 5/5 — Love this game! *2026-07-31, version 4.6.7* Have had this game for a long time and it’s the best one out there. I started playing again and noticed they introduced ads in a more obnoxious way. I get y’all have to earn, but I don’t like that it stops the game!! Oh well it’s still alot of fun!! :) ### 5/5 — Sandygi01 *2026-07-30, version 4.6.7* Love this game --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
