## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Not very user friendly

*2025-04-23, version 3.0*

Can't start a game with friend

### 1/5 — Not a good program

*2023-03-11, version 3.0*

Game keeps glitching
Opponent gets all the doubles
Delete it

### 1/5 — Backgammon 👎

*2021-10-02, version 3.0*

Not a true deal. You can predict dice roll of opponent.  Just a joke

### 1/5 — I lose

*2020-03-25, version 2.0*

Near the end the opponent gets all doubles he can use and youget doubles you cannot. You end up on the bar unable to enter at the end,opponent always wins.Plus when u try to send this they try to block u.

### 1/5 — S

*2019-03-26, version 2.0*

Fix the game so it is fair

### 1/5 — Can’t get online to play opponents

*2019-01-30, version 2.0*

I have tried to get online sometimes to play opponents and no one ever showed up so I am canceling your app

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2018-07-16, version 2.0*

Absolute garbage

### 1/5 — Why bother?

*2017-05-04, version 1.1*

Computer gets the exact die required to move my pieces off the board about 80% of the time. I get it, maybe, 15% of the time. Why create a game that frustrates players by what feels like cheating?  Game writers - this not how to treat users, especially when you offer in-app purchases. Wouldn't buy a thing thru these folks.  And this AI is, maybe, the luckiest in history. 8 or 9 doubles a round to my 2 or 3. It's no longer wasting space on my iPad.

### 2/5 — Rigged

*2019-03-21, version 2.0*

The game is definitely rigged towards the iPhone. I’ve lost the opening role 20 times as opposed to the 2 times that I won it. I have to assume that the game is balanced towards the iPhone to make you a better player by making you have to make moves much more carefully. it is a rigged game.

### 4/5 — Not Perfect But Close

*2017-03-21, version 1.0*

I haven't spent a lot of time with this game but the AI seems excellent and comparatively fair. I'm just an impatient player and would like it to move faster.

### 5/5 — Best Backgammon

*2017-02-25, version 1.0*

Good game. Would love to see more statistics. Also a tutorial game setting which would show what the cpu would do. How does this engine compare against other AIs? Eg jellyfish. Not quite sure I like the menu presentation but that is a bit irrelevant.

### 5/5 — So great!!

*2017-02-25, version 1.0*

What a great!

### 5/5 — The best

*2017-02-25, version 1.0*

Best free Backgammon game. Highly recommend

### 5/5 — Love it

*2017-02-25, version 1.0*

My friend and I play this game for 3 hours. We really enjoy it! Good design, and effects. I think it is one of the best backgammon game in store. Love it so much

### 5/5 — Good concept

*2017-02-25, version 1.0*

Good conceptual app for learning the game of backgammon and for brushing up on rules for those like me who haven't played in a few years. It's backgammon, so if you're looking for bells and whistles, then you're playing the wrong game.

### 5/5 — Smart Backgammon

*2017-02-24, version 1.0*

So intelligent! I can't wont match

### 5/5 — Yesssss

*2017-02-24, version 1.0*

I want to tell I love this game. So cool!!!!

### 5/5 — Interesting

*2017-02-24, version 1.0*

I have always loed playing this game even as a kid. It's really great for passing the time. I don't think the computer cheats sometimes and I still love and enjyou the game. It has always been great for passing the time when you are waiting for an appointment or other important event that requires your attention that day, but requires you to be patient for ta little while. Which is where this game comes in very handy, especially sice it doesn't require thi internet in area's where the wifi reception is poor quality. I would recommend this game to anyone. It's a classic

### 5/5 — Excellent AI

*2017-02-24, version 1.0*

I've played backgammon for 15 years and have used several online and app versions. This game is more intelligent and the rolls are more random than any other AI version I've played with. Going to keep using it until I think otherwise! Nice!

### 5/5 — Can't find better

*2017-02-24, version 1.0*

This game is the best backgammon
