The good news is that it is possible. The bad news is despite being a player with an over 50% win record my funds have reduced by over 50% in the month. I’m not a big bet type and would expect it to rise over time if I am winning more games than I am loosing! ### 2/5 — Not true random dice rolls *2026-08-20, version 2.44.0* The game knows who is winning and everytime will give either me or my opponent exactly what is needed almost every single time. Its a well built game but the dice roll not being truly random is really annoying. I purposely tried to lose and it kept giving me the exact numbers i needed. ### 4/5 — Long ad *2026-08-20, version 2.44.0* The pokie 7 ad is an absolute punish.. it goes for like 5 minutes .. please remove 🙏🏻 ### 1/5 — Dice is 100% rigged *2026-08-12, version 2.44.0* Decent app, fun visuals but dice is definitely rigged. Don’t be fooled by their claim. When you’re about the gammon and/or ask to double, the opponent miraculously starts to roll high doubles. Or they will roll incredibly specific, 1/36 chance rolls that turns it around at the most critical moment. Sure, this happens, it IS a probability, but when it happens all the time? Also, you will invariably roll doubles (usually 6/6) when you’ve been hit and trying to place on the home board and that lane is blocked. Oh, and if there is only one lane blocked, you WILL roll the double for that lane. These are all tactics for you to go through coins fast so you feel propelled to buy more to continue playing. It’s a shame- if they didn’t rig their dice, it’s a cool app. ### 1/5 — Not fair Dice *2026-08-11, version 2.44.0* I’m not sure if they do this to paying customers but the dice is totally rigged for non paying customers. It’s a fun game until you do all of the right moves and the dice go against you for 10 games in a row. I’m an experienced backgammon player and from my experience I can tell you that the game is certainly rigged. ### 3/5 — Kinda getting bad *2026-08-10, version 2.44.0* I understand you can’t win them all, but make it a little less obvious when you are not going to win. Also, the ads, they don’t let you away from the ad, then it just locks up. I admit I’m too cheap to pay anything, but I’d still like to play. ### 1/5 — Game is rigged *2026-08-09, version 2.44.0* What a joke this game is. It’s not statistically possible that EVERY SINGLE TIME I have an open checker, my opponent lands on it. Every single time. Also, whenever I hit to double the bet and my opponent accepts, my opponent suddenly gets tons of double rolls. I mean I like a challenge but this is truly rigged. ### 1/5 — The double bet option should be removed *2026-08-09, version 2.44.0* The game is fun until someone tries to double the bet at the end. It takes the fun out of the game because the opponent could be up in a close match but instead of playing it out they just double it to end the game knowing the other person wouldn’t accept it. This is backgammon not poker… ### 1/5 — Not good at all *2026-08-07, version 2.44.0* With spending money you can get dice what ever you want Its not fair game It's annoying when some only with spending money in game can beat you in game There are better backgammon games ### 1/5 — Sfghjasifhga *2026-08-06, version 2.44.0* Your games as bad as trump, the jokes keep writing themselves. Predictable game. ### 1/5 — Biased *2026-08-06, version 2.44.0* Absolutely rubbish game I’ve been playing for ages now I’ve played nearly 500 games and lost most of them especially against American players 90% of these games I’ve had nearly all my pieces out and then my opponent manages to hit one of mine and block me out it’s the same every game don’t bother playing ### 1/5 — Horrible *2026-08-05, version 2.44.0* I’ve been playing backgammon for years and there’s absolutely no way the dice in this game are random. There’s also many bots. Even if I’m close to winning, my “opponent” will roll the exact dice it needs along with numerous doubles. The creator of this game will insist the dice are random, but come on… ### 1/5 — very bad game *2026-08-04, version 2.44.0* I want app store to delete this game ### 1/5 — Too many flashing *2026-07-31, version 2.44.0* So many flashes, not clean. Crowded and no portrait mode. ### 4/5 — العراق *2026-07-30, version 2.44.0* يرجو تخفيف الاعلانات ### 1/5 — Worst app *2026-07-30, version 2.44.0* Worst app ever! Do not download ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Ads take so long *2026-08-31, version 2.44.0* I agree with other reviews that the dice seem rigged. But worse of all is how long ads take to complete. Never used to be this bad. The game is too hard to play now with so many long ads ### 1/5 — Pay to win *2026-08-29, version 2.44.0* If you do not pay for this app you will lose consistently on the most perfect dice rolls by the opponent. I call it in my head EVERY time. ### 1/5 — Rigged game *2026-08-29, version 2.44.0* The developer will tell you that the dice are randomized, but it is simply not true. I have been playing backgammon in real life for decades, and I have never seen an opponent get so lucky every single time with the dice roll. They’re algorithm is designed to make you lose so you can buy credits and keep playing. I understand the business model, but it is extremely unethical. Shame on the developers. They can make money without the players. I only spent a few dollars, but I am deleting this game now. ### 1/5 — Rigged Rigged Rigged!!! *2026-08-24, version 2.44.0* This game is without a doubt completely rigged. Constant losing streaks where somehow opponent gets the perfect roll to get out of jams. My final game before deleting the app was the last straw. My opponent had one checker off board and was completely blocked in except for the first point, which was open. I had one checker sitting on the 7th point. Somehow, their very first roll was a 1-6, giving them the exact roll they needed. The odds of that happening are absurd. Total BS. ### 1/5 — The worst ever game *2026-08-23, version 2.44.0* Οι μεγαλύτερη απάτη του αιώνα ! Είναι όλοι πουλημένοι! ### 1/5 — Cheating *2026-08-22, version 2.44.0* I’ve played other game but this is by far the one that cheats the most the spins are generated for you to open up and be knocked and every time your forced to open up your opponent miraculously rolls the exact number ### 1/5 — Corrupt site *2026-08-19, version 2.44.0* Besides the obvious cheating in the higher betting limits, there are constant disconnection problems almost every game. It’s a nightmare! Also, there was a player that said that she would send me 10 billion in coins if I forfeited the game to her. She said that she was a VIP for the site. Obviously, I didn’t get the coins and went from 30 million in my account to 0. This company does nothing about these situations. I have asked apple to address this. I have a snapshot of the conversation. Apple does nothing to protect the consumers. This is the most dishonest, site that I have ever encountered. There is absolutely no response from customer support. Customers beware of this site. Try another backgammon app. ### 1/5 — Fair Dice? Хахаха🤡 *2026-08-16, version 2.44.0* Когда десять - пятнадцать игр подряд в конце выигрышной партии даёт противнику несколько парных , и ты в результате проигрываешь, это как? ### 1/5 — Fair Dice my Arse *2026-08-14, version 2.44.0* Statistics and probability in this game are off most likely because the developers choose the winners to increase their revenues. I can not tell you how many times I’ve rolled double fives or double sixes when inbounding a pon and every time I do the opponent has a block on those numbers. Statistically speaking it’s not even close. Also when one rolls doubles it’s quickly followed by your opponent’s rolling doubles often identical to your doubles. So for this developer to advertise Fair Dice is a farce to say the least! ### 1/5 — Corrupt site *2026-08-13, version 2.44.0* Besides the obvious cheating in the higher betting limits, there are constant disconnection problems almost every game. It’s a nightmare! Also, there was a player that said that she would send me 10 billion in coins if I forfeited the game to her. She said that she was a VIP for the site. Obviously, I didn’t get the coins and went from 30 million in my account to 0. This company does nothing about these situations. I have asked apple to address this. I have a snapshot of the conversation. Apple does nothing to protect the consumers. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Marjan7672 *2026-08-28, version 2.44.0* Marjan7672 ### 5/5 — بغداد *2026-08-26, version 2.44.0* جميل جدا ### 5/5 — هيثم *2026-08-16, version 2.44.0* شوفي ### 5/5 — العراق *2026-07-28, version 2.44.0* شكرا ### 5/5 — Makhtom *2026-07-27, version 2.44.0* Salour ### 5/5 — Love it *2026-07-23, version 2.44.0* I love playing backgammon cuz it nevr gets old 👍 ### 5/5 — Grateful *2026-07-16, version 2.44.0* I was playing backgammon with friends and people got down right nasty.
