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.
The best backgammon player in world
on your phone! Its amazing
App cheats
The rolls the computer consistently gets are beyond belief.
Dice rolls
The dice rolls definitely favor the computer. It is very obvious. With that being said I started recording all my games and go back to see if the stats were correct. They were not. I hate to think it is done on purpose but who knows. In my opinion, I think that this is the best overall backgammon app but it definitely needs to be more neutral or at least fair.

Not blind accessible
This app, like basically every legitimate Backgammon app is completely inaccessible to blind users.
I’m blind and I’m trying to get good at Backgammon, but the app is completely inaccessible with the Apple VoiceOver and just doesn’t work sadly

Impossible to win
I put it on as low as possible and it still gets every single role it needs. it also takes its turn so fast that I can’t even see what the role is. Let alone what it does with it.
Freezing the game
I loved this app and was playing most of the time to the point my wife was getting mad at me. Recently I am getting freezing constantly to the point that I have to delete the app and re-instal. That takes away the joy and adds frustration. I was wondering if you have any solution to avoid it.
Thank you,

Not a fair game
You have to play flawlessly to win. I have played over a thousand games and in round numbers the computer gets the rolls they need 2 to 1 versus what you get. That’s a steep hill to climb that just frustrates you. Don’t waste your $10.
Don’t believe what you read that was probably AI too.
I went through every level that was provided on the free setting for about two weeks just to see. All I can say is rng. It’s to bad developers just push a button. Don’t waste your time
Silly app
Your opponent gets exactly what is needed to beat you, your skills are not welcome here. Another waste of time. I also should say that if it wasn’t cheating it would’ve been a great app. After playing it so many time I realized the game also cheats, it rolls the dice out of turn and gets exactly what it needs every time.it just takes the fun out of the game. Why do some developers do that? Is it ego?

Training Training Training
I am happily beaten up by the engaged training this app allows I am learning Backgammon.
It mostly rolls perfectly
It will mostly roll perfectly to get your piece out. Take that for what you will.
Does any one read these reviews? Had to reload the app again because it crashes
Great app if only I didnt keep getting booted, then having to delete it to have to reload it … to only be able to play in unlimited …
Keeps crashing on iPhone!
This app keeps crashing on iPhone. The Desktop version is much better. Don’t waste your money.
Doesn’t Work
According to research, good app for fair dice. However, game doesn’t work on iPad Pro 13” (M4). Send multiple screen shots to AI to try to help figure it out. AI had multiple things to try and ultimately said to give up and try another app. Simply can’t play a game of backgammon.
Terribly Predictable
When playing versus the computer you can always count on the computer landing the perfect rolls to make it almost impossible to win. In almost every case when possible the dice always come to cause maximum punishment against your position. Terribly coded and programmed and makes it almost impossible to learn how to play when you know what roll is coming next. If there was a setting for 0 stars I would give it 0 but in this case it’s definitely a 1.

Good engine, ok interface
The game plays well and for those that are good players, it probably offers a great challenge. For a total beginner like me, it works, but it takes time to learn the interface and the tutor mode is not very helpful
Fix the crashes!
Game is great but constantly crashes forcing me to uninstall and reinstall
Keeps crashing on iPhone17 Pro Max
I can't use the app on my iPhone but I can on my iPad. Hoping the Developers can fix asap
Exciting XG mobile news
Extreme Gammon is the defacto best BG bot on the market and this is the mobile version. The company has been sold recently to the founder of Uber, so hopefully some much needed updates and AI involvement are on the way. Fingers crossed as there are only four BG apps worth using on the App Store in my humble opinion and this is one.
