About

ROGUEGAMMON

Features
Read full description

ROGUEGAMMON is backgammon rebuilt for a world where the rules can be hacked. (It was called NEXTGAMMON until version 1.0.26.) Play the game you know — same board, same dice, same pip counting — but every match you draft mutation cards that bend the laws of backgammon in your favor. Skip a roll. Steal a checker. Reroll the dice. Your opponent is drafting too, and the card you pick is as important as the dice you roll. FREE 1v1 QUICK MATCH Pick one of three random cards and jump into a fast one-on-one match against the CPU anytime. No account, no sign-up, no waiting. Completely free forever. RUN MODE — THE FULL CAMPAIGN Unlock a 44-stage campaign spread across 7 Acts — Boot Sector, Street Level, The Grid, Deep Net, Black Market, Core Breach, and Singularity. Each Act ends in a Protocol Boss: a rule-breaking opponent with no deck of their own, just a corrupted rule set you have to out-think. The final boss, Omega Core, runs every protocol you have beaten and switches to a new one every 3 turns. Collect all 44 mutation cards — common, rare, epic, and legendary — as you climb. Run Mode is a one-time unlock, and it also removes ads from the entire app. TWO WAYS TO RUN - Campaign: lose a match and replay the same stage. - Roguelite: lose once and the run goes back to stage 1, but every card you have won stays in your deck, and every stage pays double chips. CYBER LAB Inspect every card you've collected, study its effect, and plan your next run. WHY YOU'LL STAY - Real backgammon strategy at the core — this isn't a reskin, it's the actual game - A deckbuilding layer that changes how every match plays out - A full campaign with bosses, not just endless matches - A one-time Run Mode unlock for the full campaign, with no ads and no subscription Free players see a small banner on the main menu and an occasional ad between 1v1 Quick Matches. Run Mode owners never see an ad, anywhere in the app. Reboot the oldest game on the board.
