Too many ads

Too many ads with the newest update

Questionable

It’s skewed towards the computer to win way too much. 😖

Why I like this game

It teaches players on how to play backgammon like a professional and I highly recommend this game 👍

Commercial

To many commercials even when in a middle of a game so frustrating

Cheats Big Time

You could have four ones left and the computer will get three double in a row and two of them being six’s? The roll of the dice always favors the computer, so I felt like I wasn’t learning or just learning how to cheat because I would have to take my play back so many times! I’m on the hunt for a more realistic version.

Enough is enough

I give up!

I’ve just deleted this app. Why do you insist on claiming the rolls are random?
Game is on and the only way you can escape is double fives. What rolls out? Well double fives of course.
I fail to understand why you feel a need to do this. Your app would be so much more popular if you made the rolls truly random. And don’t insult me and others by coming back and insisting your rolls are random. It just isn’t so!

Long ads

I love this game but the ads are so annoying. I would pay for ad free if there was an option.

It’s good

Ads are annoying

Advertisement

Anti woke advertising. Don’t know how it’s permissible in Canada. Asked Google to stop showing me it, yet it continues. Offensive, disgusting way for frightened, narrow minded individuals to smear their agenda. This is not okay.

Easy to play, moves fast

When it is apparent you are going to lose, it would be nice to have a forfeit option instead of having to remove pieces til opponent has won

Great app but ads are long

Too many and too long

Update to no ads

Love to play but tired of long ads I’m looking for a no ad versions now

No real

Ha egy kicsit is taktikusabban játszom, máris úgy változtatja a dobásokat, hogy kizárólag a gép nyerjen! Ezt Mochy látná, szégyenkezne!

Adverts OK. Now too much

Enjoyed playing this Backgammon game. Accepted adverts. When adverts take too long… It’s not worth the wait to play

Bias rolls, but was good until ads

I’ve been enjoying this app for a few years, even though I think the roles progressively become more biased. Recently though, can’t even launch a game because the intrusive ads lock you out.

Computer rolls 2 - 4 x doubles vs player

Very frustrating game. I’ve been tracking in excel. Computer consistently rolls 30 - 50 more points per game, and 2 to 3 times more doubles. Last game, in last 4 rolls, computer rolled double 6’s THREE TIMES.

When “Random” Isn’t Convincing

I’ve played enough backgammon to know that bad luck happens. This wasn’t bad luck.

In one game, I had my opponent down 21-79. But my opponent and were able to finish the game in 4 rolls each…and he won. I rolled exactly two 1-3s and two 2-4s in four consecutive rolls. Then, along the same stretch, the same opponent rolled two 6-6s and two 4-4s in four rolls. The odds of that specific sequence are roughly 1 in 4.9 billion.

I don’t expect to win every game, but I do expect the dice to feel random. When outcomes like this happen, it’s hard to believe the rolls aren’t being manipulated to keep games close or favor one player. Or…more likely…trying to get you to fork over more $$$$ to even the odds. Spend $10 and you increase your odds of from 4.9 billion to 4.8 billion.

Until the developer explains how the dice are generated and independently audited, I can’t recommend this app.

Game has gotten worse

With the now long ads and even worse cheating, this game just about is no longer any fun at all. It almost seems like the developers are sabotaging this app. I will be deleting as I am highly disappointed with the long ads and now even worse relentless cheating that goes on at the hard level.

ADs

The ads are SO egregiously long that it RUINS the app. Pathetic.

Rigged

The hard setting is rigged.
