WHAT YOU GET ⢠The full game: hitting and re-entering from the bar, bearing off, gammons and backgammons ⢠A real doubling cube, with ownership passing to whoever accepts the double ⢠Three computer difficulties, from a loose racer to an opponent that plays out whole turns in its head before it commits to one ⢠Two players on one device, passing the phone back and forth ⢠Five board themes: Neon Night, Classic Wood, Ocean, Synthwave, and Felt & Gold ⢠Play as white or black, and flip the board so your home sits where you expect it ⢠Tap to move, or drag the checker where you want it ⢠Undo any move before you end your turn ⢠A How to Play screen covering the whole game, the cube included ⢠Haptics tuned per action, and sound you can switch off WHAT IT DOES NOT DO ⢠No ads.

There is nothing to collect Built by one person who wanted a backgammon app that was not trying to sell him something every ninety seconds. Questions or bugs: eric@erichunsicker.com
