Verdict

The call

Backgammon Legends and Boresh both sit at 4.6 stars, but that hides the real split: 51% of Boresh's written reviews are positive against 17% of Backgammon Legends's. Boresh also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). Backgammon Legends's advantage is ratings volume (44K vs 850) and chart position (#106 vs unranked). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Backgammon Legends sells 11 one-off in-app purchases and Boresh sells 6 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Backgammon Legends holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Backgammon Legends has 44K ratings behind it against 850, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 17% of Backgammon Legends's written reviews are positive against 51% of Boresh's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Backgammon Legends ships an update every 2 months, Boresh fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and September 21, 2026 respectively.
