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. ### 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. ### 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. ### 4/5 — Backgammon *2020-01-12* Love the game HATE THE ADS. ### 4/5 — Too easy *2019-11-06* Too many advertisements ### 4/5 — Too much advertising *2019-07-21* In terms of gameplay brilliant. Unfortunately as with all these things you are bombarded with ads for gambling versions of your classic favourites I would happily pay a small fee to be free of this corporate attempt to turn me in to a gambling addict. ### 3/5 — Fun *2019-07-12* Good fun easy to use ### 3/5 — Bear off *2019-01-08* I wish there was an automatic bear off button ### 3/5 — AI dice fixing *2018-10-12* Initially the game was good. But now realising that soon as you leave one space open then the AI gets the right dice to stop you. Then there’s also the AI hitting 3/4 double 6’s straight away so I’m avoiding this! Fix the dice issue then you’ve got 5 stars ### 1/5 — Game is BS! *2017-09-04* When playing computer, it ALWAYS gets what it needs!!! Don't play computer!! Trying to keep you playing to sell ads at bottom!! Total BS!! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 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! ### 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!! ### 1/5 — Problems ..... *2020-01-11* I’ve played this game happily for the last 2 weeks until this week. I play against the computer and it cheats! Not the whole time, but once in each of the last 6 games. When it has two pieces on the bar but can only get one out it will then move the same counter the number of the second dice!! But surprise surprise my pieces are never allowed to do this. I’ve checked the rules and if you can’t take both pieces off from the bar you have to give up your second move. Sorry I’m fed up with computers that cheat. Please sort this out ### 1/5 — AI too lucky with the dice *2019-11-13* I didn't get a single double, the AI got repeated doubles (almost all 6s) and exactly the right number combinations to finish before me. The basic graphics, the feeling that the AI gets all the luck and the lack of controls make it a no from me. ### 1/5 — Nintendo times *2018-07-04* This app is sooo basic with such poor graphics like 1st nintendo times with no other functions but throw the dice which comes into play with such disgrace as if this was the first game ever invented in ancient times. There's also this fake annoying thinking times for A1 no matter what dice number it throw it takes such boring thinking time out and the A1 moves are so ridiculously wrong as someone without any knowledge in this game would play. U cant lose to this idiot A1. Deleting it as it brings the iphone class so down i am not sure why apple allows such bad game to exist on their store. ### 1/5 — Computer cheats *2018-03-24* The computer cheats!! When it has 2 pieces that were sent back and it rolls and can only get one back in the game it should not be able to use the other dice number but if it will send you back the computer uses it when the still have one sitting outside of the game!! Cheating to get ahead!!! ### 1/5 — GARBAGE *2017-10-30* this is crap. Graphics are terrible. Game is garbage. It has five stars because it forces you to give it that many to get rid of ads. DO NOT DOWNLOAD!!! ### 1/5 — Ads removed *2017-10-15* 5stars to remove full page ads. Not a bad set up; although computer player definitely has the advantage with rolls. In five games the computer has gotten doubles 2-3 times per game. I have gotten 2 total. *deleted- a few more games and still no better. ### 1/5 — Horribly slow & extremely basic *2017-10-08* Worst backgammon app I have ever played. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Backgamon *2021-01-13* I’m Lebanese ### 5/5 — Backgammon *2020-05-23* I love this game!!! ### 5/5 — Thanks 🙏 *2018-05-15* Good game! Better than others out there 👍 ### 5/5 — Classic Backgammon *2017-11-23* Easy to read. Easy to play. Delightful simplicity! ### 5/5 — Review *2017-11-18* To remove ads ### 5/5 — One of the best, of a big selection *2017-10-14* There're a ton of backgammon apps. This one is one of the best. Clean, simple, does the job. Only thing is I can't see how to double during a game. Maybe it's not possible. ### 5/5 — Fun game *2017-10-05* Lots of fun, keeps you entertained ### 5/5 — Great game! *2017-10-01* Lots of fun ### 5/5 — Remove adds *2017-09-22* To get rid of adds ### 5/5 — Great Game! *2017-08-12* Brilliant & Fun! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
