### 1/5 — Null Sterne

*2025-11-25, version 5*

Völlig manipuliert, das ist kein Backgammon 🤮

### 5/5 — Easily the best backgammon app

*2024-12-23*

Great online, no ads, easy play, best interface. This one is king and I’ve tried a few.

### 4/5 — Good choice of machine based opps. But……

*2023-09-28*

Some have less obvious cheating. However, latest iPad update broke the dice roll for human players on AI5 Opponent.

### 1/5 — Crap

*2023-09-02*

First game I played,on medium level, every roll by the computer put me on the bar - and each time I had two pieces exposed it barred both.
Did I happen to mention ‘every roll’.

### 1/5 — Glitch

*2023-08-29*

Been playing for years snd today, the game cuts out part way through a game. Tried turning phone back on but the same thing occurs over and over. After many 1000s of points I am very upset that I may have to delete the app and find another game, starting at zero!!

### 4/5 — Gutes Backgammon ohne Werbung

*2023-03-14, version 5*

Solche Backgammons gibt‘s nicht viele - keine Werbung, anständiges UI, und eine AI, die den Namen verdient. Mit den Top-Backgammons wie XG oder True BG kann sie nicht mithalten, aber die neuronalen Netze auf den höchsten Levels spielen ein sehr anständiges Backgammon.

Leider fehlen ein paar Kleinigkeiten - ein Tutor, die erklärt, wo man gepatzt hat und die Crawford-Regel. Aber es macht Spaß, dagegen zu spielen. Und wenn man selbst gut Backgammon kann, gewinnt man auch gerne mal dagegen. Betrügen tut die App nicht (tatsächlich hatte ich den Eindruck sie würfelt eher unglücklich für sich).

Danke an den Entwickler.

### 1/5 — A total waste

*2022-10-30*

At first it seemed to be equal in what was happening. Then everything changed as I began to make noticeably better decisions that my appointments. Shortly afterwards you could tell the designers of this game control who wins and loses.

### 5/5 — Best for finding online playes

*2022-10-18*

Love the different levels of players you can find online and how they keep it simple. It’s like playing with someone in real-time and face to face. Also the levels offline are hard

### 2/5 — Too cumbersome to play

*2022-09-30*

Suggestions to improve the game:
1. Should simply allow tapping of the piece to move to desired spot automatically, and no need to count each spot as the piece moves along board.
2. Simple roll of dice without need to tap again to stop the roll
3. Widen the board to take up entire screen.

### 4/5 — Nice but has flaws

*2021-01-17*

Nice ad free app. Chat crashes or locks up game for me on IPad so I have to,switch it off, which is a shame.
The dice throws are sometimes a bit too convenient if you play unconventionally. Not as bad as some of the other so called random dice apps though
