Frustrated

This is the best backgammon app I’ve ever played on my phone, but it crashes and freezes regularly on both the free and payed for version. You then have no alternative but to delete it and download again.

Triche aux dés

Épargnez moi les “c’est parce que t es pas assez fort”. J ai un petit background en stats. Ce que j ai observé en terme de lancer de des est complètement fantaisiste dans ce jeu. Depuis commencer par une ’nenette’ 4 fois de suite pour vous. Tomber sur un 1 miraculeux trop souvent pour l’opposant, mais surtout le nombre de doubles systématiques pour celui-ci en cas de ‘course finale’ c’est risible. J’ai du jouer 200 parties. C’est bon mes conclusions sont tirées et je retourne utiliser BGNJ comme bien meilleure app qui ne triche pas. (Et qui publie le
Tirage des des en amont - et ce tirage correspond aux faits).

En revanche je rajoute une étoile pour le mode ‘training’. Il est très utile pour vous montrer à quelle point vous faites des erreurs d’attention et comment il vous faut absolument changer vos automatismes. Mais ce mode n’est clairement pas très stratège et ne voit pas à plus de 1 ou 2 coups d’avance. Mais il est quand même très utile! Donc une combinaison de ces 2 apps
Est nécessaire pour les férus de BG.

Maddening

If I’m made to believe it isn’t rigged, I’m forced to presume that the computer is the luckiest player in history. Unless you’re ok throwing your phone out the window, save your money.
