Unable to login. *2020-12-15, version 1.7.42* Can’t login any more. I type my login in Info but I see some strange characters. ### 1/5 — don’t buy their coins, just keep collecting the bonus coins *2020-10-21, version 1.7.42* this game is a scam and is rigged against you to take your coins! dont buy their coins , better yet don’t bother to download this app. ### 1/5 — Fixed, Rigged and Ripoff v2 *2020-06-09, version 1.7.42* This review is an edit. Since I wrote the review below, I’ve lost 103 game out of the last 115. Read below and you’ll probably want to stay away from this app. Let me start with, the developers will call me racist, I’m not, but Russians did try to wreak havoc on the US during a presidential election. Next they’ll tell you Im a conspiracy theorist...not even close...I have a Phd in Biostatistics and working for 26 years as a Bio-Engineer. Fact: players have hacked this (app) game a couple times to manipulate the dice (developers admit this happened), this means the developers can also manipulate the dice (and they do it often) which proves my so called “conspiracy theory” is factual! And the developers often do rig the dice against players they don’t like. (Read other reviews). This is by far and away the most corrupt of the backgammon apps. most poeple don’t write a review unless happy or feel down right ripped off. This app is an absolute (joke) rip off!!! My games (last 200) have avg’d 22% doubles per game (so not random) If you don’t believe me play their free (practice) games and you’ll see. Unless you’re Russian, You’ll lose. Look at the ELO ratings and play one of the top rated players (all Russian)...They roll doubles like people eat peanuts...by the handfull. I’ve rolled a “1” an avg of 38% of all dice in my games. this is just the tip of the iceberg....The developers made it this way....Cheat, Cheat and Cheat! I cant wait to read their reply, they’ll come up with “you can check the dice”, “they’re random”, “read our FAQ’s”...ect...Don’t buy their bologne...its rotten and smells just like this backgammon app and the dice stink badly! It won’t take you long to see what I’m writing here, play the free “practice” games and then delete the app...you’ll be happy you did! ### 1/5 — Cheating game *2020-05-14, version 1.7.42* Again dice are not random, my opponents alaways have more doubles ### 5/5 — Good app *2020-05-10, version 1.7.42* Been using for years, only problem for me, as I only play the computer, is that both players used the doubling cube, now I’m the only one that can double. ### 1/5 — 3 roll lead *2020-04-12, version 1.7.42* I’ve found if I have a 3 roll lead taking off pieces, I generally lose. 3.5 roll lead and I generally win. Even and you lose 95 percent of the time. You cannot beat the computer’s well timed doubles. ### 5/5 — Playing it forever! *2020-02-28, version 1.7.41* Kudos to the developers! I watch this game “grow” from the simplest version with practice games and a little online activity to one of the most developed and highly ranked. Thank you! ### 1/5 — New flaw *2019-08-02, version 1.7.32* When bearing off with 6-1 roll with checkers on 5 and 1 will only allow the one checker on 5 to bear off. This happened 2x in 2 days. Giving up. Technical upgrade flaws in the last two upgrades have cost me tens of thousands of coins. Going to find another backgammon game. ### 2/5 — Dice *2019-07-30, version 1.7.32* They will write that dice are random but it’s not true. When you play an online game, the starting rolls never match. That’s the first tip that shows there is dice control. Try this game if you like but don’t count on random dice. Also, The online chat is stupid - only select (dumb) phrases can be used. It used to be good but they changed it for the worse. ## Frequently asked questions about Backgammon Masters ### What is Backgammon Masters?
