What's New in Backgammon Reserve

1.3.0

August 9, 2026

The board makes sounds now. Checkers click into place and the dice tumble just like the real thing. Everything follows your silent switch, so the game stays quiet when you do. Undo now takes back one move at a time instead of your whole turn. Roll doubles, misplace one checker, fix just that one. Games open faster and more smoothly everywhere, including when you tap a notification. Your friends list now shows the most recently active players first, and live games are labeled Live to tell them apart from daily games. Plus a handful of smaller fixes to keep the board feeling right.

Best backgammon app out there!

I’ve played a few of the apps out there and none compare! The UI is clean, and the replay option is super helpful. Love the daily games feature so I can keep a game going throughout the day.

No ads!

Super easy to use and no ads! I like this app for improving my backgammon skills without having to deal with other chatter in the background

Response from developer

Thanks! No ads is a deliberate choice. The whole app is built around the idea of being for serious players who want a high quality game that doesn't request them to buy coins every time they click on something.

Love it!

Playing the app with my family near and far. Can’t recommend it enough.

Response from developer

This one means a lot - playing across distance is exactly what I had in mind. If you've ever wished a game could sit unfinished for a day while everyone takes their turn, that's something I just released. Try it out with your family!

GOAT Backgammon App

Great app for peer to peer games and even just single bot play. Love the “learn Backgammon” feature!
