COMPLETE BACKGAMMON RULES Rules are enforced exactly as in real backgammon; no illegal move is allowed. • Entering from the bar, hitting blots, and bearing off once your home board is complete • The "play both dice if possible, and the larger die if only one can be played" obligation • Four moves on doubles • Double points with a gammon (mars) At the start, each side rolls one die and the higher roll opens the game with those numbers — just like over-the-board play. EASY, FLUID CONTROLS Tap Roll Dice and your playable checkers are highlighted instantly. Touch a checker, its legal destinations light up in green, tap the target and your move is done. No fumbling with illegal moves — only rule-legal plays are possible. THREE DIFFICULTY LEVELS Easy, Normal, and Expert give every player a fitting opponent. Beginners learn the fundamentals with confidence, while experienced players face a real test at Expert level. MATCH PLAY AND THE DOUBLING CUBE • Matches to 3, 5, 11, or 15 points — a quick break or a long backgammon night, the choice is yours • Optional doubling cube adds genuine match tension: double at the right moment and leave your opponent with a tough decision • Single-game mode for fast play SMART HELPERS • Hint: shows the strongest move right on the board — the best way to learn by watching • Play For Me: hand the turn to the computer and let it finish the move • Undo: change your move before ending your turn (turn it off in settings if you prefer) DETAILED STATISTICS • Games and matches won and lost, gammon counts, points for and against • Winning streak and best streak tracking • Dice distribution table: see how many times each die face has come up, for both you and your opponent FAIR DICE Dice are rolled completely at random.
