The former version was no longer compatible with iOS 11 (it wouldn't start or crash in most cases). The code base of the former version was too old to just be updated which is why we needed to rebuild the game from scratch. We used this opportunity to also implement a multiplayer mode and update the graphics. How can I play the former / old version of Backgammon? You can only play the old version if you don't update the game and use a device that uses iOS 10.3.3 or lower. Where is the "Undo" button? After your first move, there will be a circular arrow pointing to the left, at the bottom right of the board. Tapping the arrow will undo your move. ________________ You can find our general terms and conditions here: http://tc.lite.games ...and our privacy policy here: http://privacy.lite.games Visit us for more free iPhone and iPad games: https://www.lite.games https://www.facebook.com/LiteGames Or give us your app feedback here: support@lite.games Thanks for playing!

Verdict

The call

Funny Scoreboard and Backgammon both sit at 4.5 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of Funny Scoreboard's written reviews are positive against 32% of Backgammon's. Funny Scoreboard also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (12.2 vs 15.0). Backgammon's advantage is price (Free vs $0.99) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 62 months). On rating, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
