### 2/5 — You kidding ?

*2023-06-23*

I always thought Playgem was the most crooked backgammon program on the Internet until a game I just played on zanga . My opponent was beat. I had one roll to beat him but right before that he got 2 doubles, first double 3’a and then double 6 to wipe the floor clean. what a crooked pile of crap this program isof course you know it’s a written program so the ending is decided by an algorithm and if you’re on the bad end of that algorithm you are dead no matter what it has to do. I hope beyond hope it’s clean because it takes money to play this, so it may not be a lot of money, but there is some money that you have on the line and they are stealing they are thieves. and now they have redone the whole game. Crazy. It’s stupid. Why would they change that? It was a perfect looking board. I didn’t like the way it played beautiful and now it’s a crook crapprogram. The new program so stupid I keep expecting Mario kart to come out. What ac kind of à la crap is this who would program something that’s already on the kids games

**Developer response:** Our dice are randomly generated by the system. You get random numbers when you make a roll like in real life.

### 5/5 — What’s going on with the game

### 3/5 — Learned how to play

*2023-02-04, version 5.1.0*

The app is fun but has lots of glitches that sometimes cause me to have to delete and reinstall the app. As a woman I have experienced sexual harassment but have found no avenue to report players who make inappropriate comments.

**Developer response:** Our dice are randomly generated by the system. You get random numbers when you make a roll like in real life.

### 4/5 — Good program

*2023-01-12, version 5.1.0*

One exception: difficult seeing your wager in time allotted.

### 4/5 — Very Good…but

*2022-11-12, version 5.1.0*

The game is well put together, but WAYtoo many quitters in mid-game. Should be a penalty for leaving the game without finishing when you’re losing.

### 5/5 — Big fan

*2022-08-15, version 5.1.0*

I like this app a lot. Few issues other than connection issues here and there. Pretty serious players make it fun.

**Developer response:** Hello,

Thank you for the 5 stars! :)


Good luck,

### 1/5 — Total scam

*2022-05-21, version 5.1.0*

Do not waste your money or time. There is no way that your opponent gets perfect roles every single time. Sometimes four or five doubles in a row. And you never get any. Sometimes it happens to you which is unfair to your opponent. If you earn so much money they take it all away from you by making you lose nine games in a row which is virtually impossible if you know how to play this game.

### 1/5 — Backgammon Plus

*2022-04-19, version 5.1.0*

Absolutely unbelievable the amount of “incredible” dice throws your opponent will miraculously be given. It’s virtually impossible for so many opponents to roll the exact dice to pluck off your checkers, especially if you happen to get ahead at any time. There’s just no way these dice are “random.”  And your competitors are some of the rudest people with the most poor sportsmanship actions I’ve ever seen.

**Developer response:** Our dice are randomly generated by the system. You get random numbers when you make a roll like in real life.
