So so

Needs a chat option. Fairly basic and a little bit clunky especially when connecting with friends. If you leave the app to send a message for example or anything else, you lose the game due to it logging out.

Garbage App!

Don’t waste your time with this one!

Hello, thank you for your feedback! We're sorry that we haven't been able to fully convince you yet. We take our players' feedback very seriously and are constantly working on updates to improve the app. We hope to impress you with our progress in the future. Enjoy playing!

Hahaha ridiculous

I haven't even played a single game and I've already been shown four ads. Hahaha, better not, thanks.

Thanks for your feedback! We understand that frequent ads can be frustrating. We’ll review the current ad frequency and adjust where possible to make the experience smoother. We hope you’ll give the game another try!

Waste of time!

Outcome has been determined before the game starts. They allow players to name themselves vulgar profane names! They say fair! No way, triple 6’s in a row, no way!
Worst game ever! I just want an honest fair game and this ain’t it.

Response from developer

We're sorry to hear that. Game outcomes are not predetermined—results are based on chance. Offensive names are not allowed; while there's no report tool yet, we're working on it. Thanks for your feedback—we’re committed to improving fairness and the experience.

普段から手癖のように遊んでます
ただ、ダブルをかけられた際にポイントとチップカウントが表示されたままにしてもらえると嬉しい

Wrong moves

Horrible app

I downloaded this to use with a friend. It wanted my email and to allow push notifications. I did both and it still wouldn’t let us play. Then I went to delete my account and it started spazzing out. Don’t touch this with a ten foot pole - it might bite you.

Rigged

The hardest levels just gives them better dice and the lower levels are too easy

Nora is a cheat

The A.I. gets exactly what they need at the right time once you play highest levels

Crooked dice

CROOKED DICE!!!

Response from developer

Hello, the dice rolls are based on a programmed random principle. This doesn't have a 50/50 result, but is defined by a probability curve where some dice combinations are slightly more frequent than others. As a result, it can feel like one player is luckier or unluckier than another. Your LITE Games Team

Best

Best backgammon I’ve found for playing against the computer. I’ve tried a couple dozen

Such a shame

I've played and enjoyed this version of BG for many years. Sadly, I feel I need to delete it now as it appears they have changed the advert rate to an advert after every game. I could cope with the every now and then adverts or an advert at the end of a match but NOT after every game! This really interrupts game play and concentration. Bad move and what was a great fun is now tedious.

Dice Rolls in Opponents Favour

While playing Online, against an opponent, it amazes me how many times they roll doubles while I am only rolling singles. Something seems off with that, as it doesn’t happen that way in a real game.

Unrealistic

The opponent gets several doubles. I went two games with none. Statistically, this would not happen IRW. Deleted it.

Cheats

Going to find a better platform to play backgammon. To many bots involved and they are set to win.

Too many ads

Way too many ads

No fair dice

90 percent of the games my opponent starts first. Game locks up and you lose. Moves are predictable! Their algorithm is messed up! 4 double 6s in a row? I astound my friends by predicting the next roll. Not worth my time.
Douglas EngelbartDouglas Engelbart

Response from developer

Hi Douglas, the ai who rolls the dice is absolute neutral. But of course, also like in real life, from time to time everyone has bad luck. This happens also if i play games. Hope you understand. Greetings, Alex from LITE Games Team.
