I made this game because I couldn't find a single backgammon app on the store whose dice I could trust. Suspiciously lucky opponents, double after double at exactly the right moment… So I built the one I wanted to play. HONEST DICE, NOTHING HIDDEN • Against the computer, your dice and the AI's dice come from the same random generator. The AI gets no special rolls and only plays with the dice you see on the board. • Online, neither phone decides the dice: the server rolls them with cryptographic randomness. • Watch it yourself: a live dice-distribution chart for both players during every match, and full dice statistics in your profile. • Real 3D dice, thrown with physics. Tap to roll, or pick them up and shake them in your hand. PLAY YOUR WAY • Single player against a strong computer opponent • Two players on the same device: single game, or first to 3 or 5 points • Online: quick match against real players, or add friends and invite them to a match • Classic rules with gammons; resign and gammon offers like at a real table • Turn clock, undo, move highlights in the colors you choose BEAUTIFUL 3D WORLDS — OR A LIGHT 2D VIEW • Play in a traditional Turkish coffeehouse, at a creekside picnic, on an Aegean beach, by a log-cabin fireplace, in a Bedouin tent among the dunes — or on the Moon • Prefer it simple? Switch to the 2D view: a clean top-down board that uses less battery and runs smoothly on older phones MAKE IT YOURS • 12 boards, 21 dice sets and 19 checker sets (5 of each glowing) • 10 characters with their own backgrounds, and 10 free emotes to tease your opponent • Levels, XP and achievements FAIR TO PLAY • Everything that affects the game is free. Only cosmetic items are sold. • No forced ads: watch an optional ad only if you want to try an item for 24 hours. Available in English and Turkish.
