Help

I really enjoy this game, playing with friends etc. But, for some reason it randomly quits in the middle of a game — that is very frustrating!!

Schönes Spiel nicht mehr

Es hat sich sehr verschlechtert. Inzwischen sind die Würfel sehr unfair geworden , Von daher macht es keinen Spaß mehr.
Ich bin eine gute Spielerin und verlier fast jedes Spiel gegen Anfänger
So läuft das nicht

Vomits out continual stream of long commercials.

Seemed to be a great game until it started requiring constant consent to its data gathering on behalf of “trusted vendors”. It wasn’t enough to reject their options once, no, it was constantly filling out the same consent form even though each time using my information was restricted. Since then the game persistently and consistently vomits out a continuous stream of commercials that go on and on and on…

Spiel ok, Werbung zuviel.

Ohne die wirklich sehr sehr viele und nervige Werbung wäre es super

Gym

I was well on the way to a win when my opponent rolled doubles 4 out of 5 rolls for the win. Random? I don’t think so.

Rigged roles

Absolutely rigged rolls. Play long enough and you will notice a pattern.

Fixed Rolls

I posted an earlier review (mid-June) about how this app froze at loading to 85%-88%. I rated this app a ”1” at that time, sadly. The developers really did a nice job getting the upgrade fixed, and the upgrade has gone through a couple iterations since. I want to give this backgammon app a “5”, but I cannot, sadly.

The plus side is every time I have emailed the developers, they have been very prompt to respond. They have asked the right questions, they took care of the issues, and even followed up with me. They demonstrate that they care and they want to fix the issues. 5 STARS for that!!!!

The downfall has been the rigged rolls which EVERYONE has experienced throughout the latest upgrade iterations. It has become RIDICULOUS regarding the improbability of rolls needed and what is being made. Even those rolls to my advantage. Prior to the recent iterations, the rolls still appeared to be “normal”; I.e.: within statistical probability. Lately, the improbability has become absurd. The randomness of rolls needs to be fixed, please.

This is still a better-than-average backgammon app. I do enjoy it and find myself playing nearly every day. But, let’s get real here, guys! Let’s return to absence of normalcy. Thanks!

Cheating

I have read a lot of the comments and apparently you have a big problem with this game cheating!!!! FIX IT!!!!!!!!!!!

Game fair, but ads make it not worthwhile

Several minutes of ads that cannot be bypassed before game. No paid version available. Deleting. More time watching ads than playing.

Rigged roles

This game could be great but the roles are unnatural and if you play long enough you will notice the game will role the dice in the favor of one player. It’s so obvious that no one can deny the roles are rigged. Too bad because this could be a great game.

Terrible

Single player mode is terrible. The computer opponent always throws exactly what it needs. Absolute rubbish.

The ads are seemingly interminable too, but I accept that as the price for playing a ‘free’ game.

Backgammon

I play every day for fun

Great game

Love this backgammon game. Play it all the time. Great for playing with friends.

Highly manipulated app

Everything with this app is fixed. From the dice rolls, to the eventual winner. Which the app selects. Supposedly you are playing against a live opponent, but in reality you are playing against the app. Even the spin wheel is fixed, in alternates between a token or points, every other spin. Play some games, you'll see.

Tiresome!

I like the app, don’t get me wrong, but I hate the amount of ads! It is refreshing to find a game that appears to be playing fairly in one player mode v AI. Others I have tried always throw exactly what it needs to win! If there was an option to kill the ads I might continue with this app, but it really annoys me so much as it is.

Buggy

Fun for a few days, but app closes and must restart and lose game, even when playing live, very frustrating, had to delete

Great APP

Love it wish they would let u interact directly with your oppome

BS Game and Algorithm!

Programmers want you hooked so don’t be shocked when beginners get perfect doubles and you roll 2 and 1s 4 times in a row and lose! The losers here are the game’s programmers - sick MFs
