Please Update

This has been the best BG app. I paid for the HD version to show my support.

Please update it.

App constantly crashes with iOS 27

Unplayable Online

Crashes a lot

Crashes often, especially in real-time mode, both on iPhone and iPad. Crash after one or two moves, every time.

My go-to game

This has considerably improved my game through constant play. It’s no substitute for playing against a more experienced player, but if you want to sharpen your skills it’s ideal. Clear and simple design.

Dice suspect

Nice features and UI though too many times the dice do not behave. It will accept a double then roll double 6,4,5,6 to easily win. If ever it hits you, you will never get back in regardless and it will leave pieces exposed that are never hit. Extremely frustrating to play

Dupsmn

App crashes every time after the iOS 27 update.

Playing online is impossible

I have a perfect internet connection, when playing online, I get many time the same message “The match connection was terminated unexpectedly”.

Joy to play

It a joy to have this on you phone. Use it whenever I’m on the train or travelling by air as it doesn’t need to be on line. The highest setting is very tough if you want a challenge otherwise use it at the lower setting to relax. The game keeps my backgammon’s skills well honed for when I do get the chance to play a human lol. Love it.

Not a level playing field

I’ve put it to the test. It’s not random or coincidence.

Not truly random

Play enough and you’ll see disappointing patterns. Don’l like to me.

Quitting

Do not agree with awarding points to players that quit. Overall a good design and game. TY

My brother

I love Joseph.

Not a BAD AI backgammon game

Well, it still cheats. Yes I have read the statistics, but I also got a set of physical dice and rolled the move for each player. With the manual tools, the win rate between the human and the AI is about 50/50. Without the manual rolls, AI wins all the time, having exactly the needed rolls at exactly the correct time.
The interface is fabulous, the piece movement is great.
You can’t blame the AI for wanting to win and having a way to make it occur!

Not Random

The rolls are not true. I play all the time with a board and other apps.

The computer cheats

I’ve put it to the test. It’s not random or coincidence.

Cheats

Regularly pulls high odd roles out of it’s pocket.

Completely rigged

Game is so rigged you can predict the rolls. Total joke.

Great version

Discovered recently you can look at future dice rolls for either player. Interesting but don’t use it. The one thing I’d LOVE is a tutorial mode. Telling me when there’s a better move - and maybe why. Even without it’s a great way to learn how to play.

Cheats

Very frustrating. I love the UI. I am an experienced backgammon player. The dice are not random. This app cheats.

Been playing this a long time

I am a very good backgammon player and have played ever since I was a kid. I started playing backgammon NJ several years ago and have I gotten play regularly on expert level. It has definitely improved my game over time and I have learned new strategies, some of which are almost counterintuitive. Specifically it has taught me to be more aggressive and take appropriate risks. Great game.
