Backgammon the way it should feel: a beautiful board, two dice, nothing in the way. EzeGammon explains itself without a single word – tap, drag, roll. If you know backgammon, you can play immediately. If you're learning, short demonstrations play right on the board. 32 REAL BOARDS Photorealistic boards with real checkers and dice – from a classic leather travel board to bold modern colours. Calm, uncluttered, and free of ads. HONEST DICE Rolls come from your device's cryptographic random number generator – and the app proves it: a built-in statistic shows the distribution of every roll you have ever made. Nothing is rigged, and you can check it yourself. AN OPPONENT FOR EVERY DAY Play a friend on one device, or play the computer. Four skill levels, from a patient opponent for beginners to a level that challenges strong players. With the doubling cube, matches to 3, 5, 11 or 15 points, and the Crawford rule. GET BETTER The light bulb suggests the best move in the middle of your turn. After the game, the review shows you where a stronger choice was available. AN HONEST MODEL Free forever: the complete two-player game, a computer opponent, the doubling cube, match play, dice statistics and three trial hints. A single purchase unlocks everything else for good: all 32 boards, all four computer levels and unlimited hints. No subscription. No ads. No accounts. The app collects no data at all.
