### 1/5 — So much cheating!

*2025-11-29*

Makes illegal moves , check the rules!
Wouldn’t mind so if it let me make the same dodgy moves. 
Rubbish!

### 3/5 — Game rules programming error/bug

*2021-10-17*

With 2 tokens on the bar, the computer rolled a 3 and 2.  Instead of pulling both tokens off the bar as required, the computer pulled off only one, and then moved the same token, knocking me to the bar instead of pulling the second token off. Fix the bug please. 

Also, it would be nice to have an ‘undo’ or play confirmation button.

### 1/5 — Not great

*2021-06-29*

App continually freezes in the middle of a game which means a restart of the game which wastes time and makes no fun.

### 1/5 — Rubbish Backgammon

*2021-05-17*

Don’t waste your time downloading this as it is so basic it’s laughable. Oh the adverts!!

### 4/5 — Programming error

*2021-04-07*

Just to drawbacks on this app. The first is there’s no undo key. The second was a programming error. I had two of the opponents tokens out and they rolled and got one token in and then move that same token the other amount of the die and knocked me out. But the other token was still not on the board so that is a programming error.

### 5/5 — Backgamon

*2021-01-13*

I’m Lebanese

### 3/5 — Good for practice but...

*2020-08-28*

The app player is a good challenger but the dice seem to favor this opponent. The app knows (LOL) how to roll the dice in order to get doubles exactly when their needed. I’ve played games where the app rolls doubles five of seven times at the end of the game. Ugh.

### 2/5 — Clumsy and slow

*2020-07-18*

Too many steps to move pieces. Too slow.  Haven’t found the doubling cube.

### 5/5 — Backgammon

*2020-05-23*

I love this game!!!

### 4/5 — Backgammon

*2020-01-12*

Love the game HATE THE ADS.
