The cheating dice is going to make me leave. ### 2/5 — Ok but *2026-06-22* Slow moving. Colors are off , they are not right. And when you are winning big games the opponent gets multiple doubles in a row starting with double 6s **Developer response:** Thanks for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear you felt this way. Our dice system is completely random and equal for all players – no one gets any advantage. If you’d like, feel free to contact us through in-game support so we can look into any specific match. Your experience matters to us ### 3/5 — Good…but…. *2026-06-13, version 7.1.1* I’m enjoying it but it infuriates me when it allows 6 to be NOT played. E.g. If a 6 and 2 is played in the end phase of the game, it allows the player to play the 2 and the six is ignored. Also what about double for a gammon/backgammon? It is not true backgammon without these bugs being fixed. ### 3/5 — Too many doubles *2026-03-31, version 6.9.1* Could be really good, but when half the rolls are doubles it takes all the enjoyment out of it. ### 3/5 — Players without coin *2026-02-10, version 6.8.3* You can always tell when you are playing a child, they play without the funds to double or get to their final roll, realise they are going to win and then double. I find children very tedious, but I don’t know how the programmers could stop it. ### 2/5 — Going down over time *2026-01-20, version 6.8.0* Been playing the game for a little while and have noticed a couple more anomalies, you can win or loose, unfortunately you can’t win with a Gammon or backgammon. Also the dice roll is not correct, for example my adversary had thrown a four and a one, I had two counters on the triangle in front of him and one four triangles ahead. He managed to move five triangles without taking my counter, not possible. The program writer really needs to learn how the game is played! ### 2/5 — Problem *2025-06-28, version 6.4.4* The game is good, but the company should reduce the number of ads. ### 4/5 — Good, not great! *2025-03-06, version 6.1.4* Sometimes, the opponent's roll seems predetermined. ### 3/5 — Returning *2025-02-24* I played this game a lot several months ago and gave it good ratings, but on returning there seem to be some changes I don’t care for, such as moving the tokens, it’s very cumbersome and they don’t move when you tap them. There doesn’t seem to be a way to play a specific person or friend, as it says. Game itself is very good. **Developer response:** Hello Ts246, Thank you for your feedback and review update.

Manchmal können Gegenspieler scheinbar die Gewürfelten Züge nicht ausführen, Die Würfel werden dann plötzlich wieder an den anderen Spieler übergeben und dieser spielt das Spiel sozusagen allein (der Gegenspieler könnte jedoch einsetzen, das Zielfeld seines Wurfes wäre frei!). Manchmal lässt sich die Spielfigur nicht durch tippen bewegen, dann muss man die Figuren ziehen, was u. U. Auch problematisch ist, da beim Ziehen über einen 2. möglichen Stein plötzlich der 2. Stein statt des ersten ausgewählt wird. Würfelverhalten scheint manchmal vorhersehbar. Der Gegner verdoppelt und mit einer sehr hohen Wahrscheinlichkeit bekommt er im Anschluss daran einen fast schon Spielentscheidend guten Wurf (u.B. hoher Pasch) Dann wieder scheint es als fallen die Würfel in ganzen Serien nur zugunsten des Gegners. **Developer response:** Hallo Player7685, vielen Dank für Ihr Feedback! Es tut uns leid, dass Sie den Eindruck haben, der Algorithmus ändere sich und das Spiel wirke unfair. Wir nehmen solche Rückmeldungen sehr ernst und überprüfen gerne, ob es Optimierungsbedarf gibt. Es freut uns, dass Sie eine Erstattung erhalten haben, und wir arbeiten weiterhin daran, ein faires und angenehmes Spielerlebnis zu gewährleisten. Danke für Ihre Offenheit und viel Spaß weiterhin beim Spielen! ### 4/5 — Live backgammon *2025-01-01* Nice to play with real people not computer happy a **Developer response:** Hello Mrs. Harper, thank you for your feedback! Could you please provide us with your in-game nickname? This will help us resolve the issue with your purchased emojis as quickly as possible. We appreciate your patience and are committed to ensuring your gaming experience is enjoyable. Thank you for playing Backgammon! ### 5/5 — Sehr gut *2024-10-24* Excellent app, opponents are selected quite quickly. Nice design of the game, support service is always in touch👍 **Developer response:** Thank you! We’re glad you like the game design and support. Enjoy your games! ### 4/5 — Loving this game *2024-10-10, version 5.9.1* Challenging, interesting and quick. Perfect way to spend guilt free time. Ad at end of each game, sometimes a bit too long. But well worth a try! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Game is rigged to get you to spend money *2026-06-27, version 7.1.6* Don’t waste your time ### 1/5 — Awful *2026-05-19* Dice are not random… designed to speed the game and auto capture pieces. As far from real play as you can get. Criminal that you charge people to purchase credits for this. ### 1/5 — Game loses pieces *2025-12-23, version 6.7.7* Game loses the pieces and doesn’t let you finish ### 1/5 — Lose *2025-09-13, version 6.5.8* Get ready to lose. ### 1/5 — Pay to Win‼️‼️‼️ *2025-08-22, version 6.5.4* If you spend money in the game the dice will do exactly what you need! It’s just sad‼️ ### 1/5 — Great game but lacking *2025-06-28, version 6.4.4* I would have given this game five stars as the graphics are good, when you first start it goes well but the further you go it becomes rigged, I don’t mind losing in a good game, but not when someone doubles and the dice magically fall on the right numbers. Also some people have access to emojis and it’s a bit embarrassing when they say hello and you can’t reply because you don’t have access to them. Please sort this out. ### 1/5 — Too slow moving game *2025-05-09, version 6.3.2* Need a tad bit faster moving game ### 1/5 — Unfair *2024-09-19* Von wegen online, genauso unfair wie all die anderen, Gegner gewinnt 90% der Spiele - Schrott, gleich wieder gelöscht **Developer response:** Vielen Dank für Ihr Feedback! Es tut uns leid, dass Sie diesen Eindruck gewonnen haben. Wir möchten Sie ermutigen, dem Spiel noch eine Chance zu geben. Wir sind sicher, dass Sie feststellen werden, dass die Spielerfahrung fair gestaltet ist. Wir hoffen, dass Sie Ihre Meinung ändern und Ihre Bewertung entsprechend anpassen! ### 1/5 — Algorithm *2024-08-05* This Ap so far has been better than most. I have noticed the rolls are unrealistic. Seems to be constantly adjusted, since beginning. Players are rolling a series of doubles in a row 3 and 4 times. Ap at times locks players out to where they cannot move. **Developer response:** Hello Durkee Famy, Thank you for your review and for sharing your observations. We truly value the feedback from our community. I want to assure you that the dice rolls in our app are completely randomized and adhere to standard fair-play guidelines. We continuously monitor the system to ensure there is no bias or unfair advantage. Regarding the issue you mentioned about players being locked in positions where they cannot move, could you please provide us with more details? Understanding the specific situations or game scenarios where this occurs would be greatly helpful. We strive to improve the app based on user feedback and would really appreciate if you could reconsider your rating after we address the issue. Looking forward to your response! Best regards, Backgammon Online team ### 1/5 — Can't use *2024-01-17, version 5.2.8* Maybe it's just me, but this is not intuitive at all, so I can't use it and I'm deleting it ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Best *2026-04-21* Great backgammon.
