Game is rigged

This game cheats, making five moves after rolling doubles, not the four moves you get to make after rolling doubles. The game is rigged and forces you to make moves which result in your opponent rolling just the number needed to hit your marker and send you back to the beginning. When you are near to bearing off your last markers, your opponent hits you and the numbers you need to get down from the bar are not rolled until all of your opponent’s markers have entered the “end zone”, leaving you to try to catch up. I’m done with this game.

Dice rolls are not realistic

The opponents dice rolls seem to favor them. Often they get just the right roll they need. And now they get doubles upon doubles. 3 double sixes in a row!???
Really!! This game is not realistic and it’s not user friendly either. Trying to figure out how to increase level difficulty (buy tokens but how many do I need?) trying to change rules of play, etc. Anything you want to change cost you $$$. And when playing another (human?) online I’m never sure it’s not a computer player.

Fun game

I like the hardwood games

Automatic dice rolls

I’ve played several different backgammon games and now that I’ve played for awhile now, it’s been deleted. This game is rigged. As most of them are! There is no probability of rolling five to six high number doubles as they do per game. It’s not all about winning every game, but about playing a fair game. I’m disabled an spend several hours of my day playing games like this to try and keep my mind going. I’m not even good at the game, but I did enjoy playing until they started manipulating their plays until you couldn’t win no matter how you played. And if you noticed the reviews they show are from 7 or 8 yrs ago!

Automatic dice rolls

I’ve played several different backgammon games and so far I rate this one the highest. And that’s only because the have a way to play where you gave control of the moves if you play multiplayer on tablet. They still have control of the dice rolls, but it’s harder for them to win as much. But it proves that the dice is not an automatic roller.

Luv 2 play backgammon

If you notice they only show positive reviews that are 7yro. But where are all the newer reviews. Did you know that it is illegal to take down reviews. This game of backgammon, just as all the others I’ve played have to cheat to win by rolling doubles or the exact number sequence to position their pieces where needed. It’s really pathetic that they can’t win by strategically playing the game!

Grew game!

This game is the best of all the ones I’ve tried! The rolls actually seem fair, and there’s only one ad at the end of every game! Clear graphics and easy to use! Finally found a good one!!

Love the game

I love the game

Not a Fair game!!!!

Fun to play but game is one sided. Have not won a game yet when playing one player. Dice rolls are so predictable always in favor of computer. Other reviews say it’s fair but that is not true. 😡

I love this game!

This the best backgammon game I have found. You can play in several different modes but I prefer straight up backgammon with no frills. That’s what this is. Just a good game.

Let me get my glasses

Why is the game board so tiny? I have this massive iPad screen and a game board the size of my phone.

Game

Good

No pay, no way

I have not upgraded, when playing others I get 2-1, 5-1, 4-3, etc while the other player constantly gets doubles. Disappointing, not worth the frustration

Backgammon

Is a great game very entertaining

Unfair game

Frustrating!
Why is it that when I am winning the computer consistently rolls doubles while I continue to get small numbers!
Don't waste your time!

Great backgammon

Neat clean game. If you’re learning or the family pro this is the best

Love this game!!!

Rolls are not random

Not much fun to play against the computer when it controls the dice. Statistically rare combinations happen way too frequently, and at the appropriate time for the computer to win.

Not fun to play. Sorry I paid for pro.

Nice, clean format, plus…..

This backgammon game has lovely sound effects. I usually turn them completely off in other games. But this one you hear some rolling waves, gentle horse hooves, birds, church bells, an occasional dog bark…very relaxing
