It gets a little old when the computer gets 12 doubles and I get 2 I ve played about 100 games and have won 95 of them even with all the doubles and other assists Cheaters rarely prosper     Ridiculously oriented to AI Biffbulge
In one game the computer rolled doubles 7 times while the human had none Also in most games the computer rolls doubles several times at the end Needs to be tweaked to be more fair It doesn t feel as if the rolls are random         Computer cheats Always listening.
Do not buy this game Stick with free version It is impossible to win the computer will make the roll match what your opponent needs to win In every game all of them I am placed on the rail and I stay there until my opponent goes out Very disappointing     Deleting Npwalaska
Good game Here are some suggestions to the app developer First the game does not adjust volume via my iPhone volume control It s either full on or silent if I use the ringer switch on my phone Sometimes the game has quirks like just now I had one remaining piece to bear off on the second to last triangle I rolled a 1 3 and it makes you move the 1 first before allowing you to bear off the piece The losing sound is annoying Making you hit OK at the start of each game after the initial roll is annoying The fact that when selecting a color you either play correctly oriented or upside down is annoying The colors don t change to your orientation Therefore white is the only option to play to have the correct single player orientation             Good game but needs some upgrades Backgammon Master
Great game I like it very much My only pass time game                     Turkam Ali pasha
This is a much better version Still love this game 5 years later                     Great game Miss D's iphone
It is a fun app you can choose your difficulty levels The part that gets tiresome is when playing the computer in a hard setting they constantly roll doubles beyond anything you would see in normal dice rolling Also when your in the bearing off mode and there is no danger of hitting or being hit by another pip this game has no automatic roll off in other words you must tirelessly keep rolling and removing your men and waiting for the computer to so the same when at that point it should just be automated bearing off I m sure there are some apps that have that I just don t know which ones do In the meantime this is a fun free app that will keep unnecessary occupied for hours                 Needs some work Island 43
Really enjoy this version                     Great times Knight Assassin
Computer rolls doubles way more often than player Also the perfect timely rolls are way in favor for the computer Game itself moves well and is without bugs The programming needs some work to be fair             Not fair Timothy1234567890
Only thing to improve would be scoring by Pips too                 Challenging JBell0325
This game really helps with distraction and decompression                     Great Distraction nobraincells
Great way to enjoy backgammon with a few moments of downtime                     Fun easy aklever1
Good game play and nice graphics one of my top time wasters FYI After the recent change to the doubling strategy I still win about 3 4 games but now with higher scores so new strategy is worse than before                     Good fun Pidloop
Computer usually gets rolls it needs So when you win you feel it s skill rather than luck                     Good Game Pete8512
Pretty good game Enjoyable and challenging on hardest level                 Fun JR786
A great board game                     Optime Backgammon Ogun69
Works well Simply the BG                     Great Fun JoeDayton
Medium game plays too stupid to be realistic On difficult mode the luck of the dice for the computer is just stupid Now 4 years later nothing much changed except I play differently I just cheat if the dice are stupid             Same old issues Temporary;-)
Could be good but it cheats like crazy Doesn t rate you on your accomplishments of the Game I keep it trapped in my ending section then it gets 4 doubles Continued trumping doesn t give you much of a score     Cheats Katie Spring
Issues with randomness or more specifically lack of randomness BG is a dice game Laws of probability should determine strategy but the absurd frequency of doubles negates the value of traditional board play strategizing The program should also be upgraded to remove poor play such as not prioritizing movement of pieces out to avoid double gammons             Program problems snakeize.
Easy and medium levels are way too easy but hard level is ridiculous Let s you win every now and then but anytime you leave a chip open it gets perfect roll If you get ahead it gets double after double If you have chips on every slot but 2 and 4 you can bet that will be your roll Maybe create an impossible level for this kind of cheating and just make difficult have normal random roles             Needs a little work JRG69
Doesn t cheat but it is a genuinely bad player No option to approve a roll Opponent moves the second you have used your last die If you want to undo you see your opponents roll and move first If you play black your home board is on the other side of the board No option for randomizing When there are no moves available a note appears completely blocking the roll from view Other aggravating problems A complete waste of 1 99     Awful Backgammon App InvestmentAdvisor
Frustrated Every few days I need to go back to the App Store to make the ads go away even though I paid for it It s annoying They are bound and determined to keep the ads going Otherwise the game is ok The cheating isn t exclusive to the computer half I stopped playing the computer and play both sides myself because it s the best way Even then it will have similar patterns             Ads keep coming back even after you ve paid for no ads Musejoy
Update fixed iOS 11 crashes                     Great Gathawk
Best interface of many that I tried but even the difficult level makes some rookie mistakes and if not for the luck of the dice it can never win over above average players             Not for Advanced Players gchristo96
Overall the game plays well with some nice options including showing possible moves and letting you choose whether you want to be black or white On the downside I cant find the doubling cube at all and I agree that the computer seems extra lucky in hard mode Although you can solve that by switching to an easier mode thats not the same as getting a better opponent              Nice Features But AI Could Be Better
No need to buy the pro app Same as free version        Stick with free version
If you want to have fun and kill a little time this app is for you              Great for what it is
Ive tried 4 backgammon v AI games and this is the best so far Some say that the hard setting wins by rolling doubles I dont find that to be true I get as many doubles as it does at opportune moments I do wish hard were a bit harder but perhaps Im a better player than I think It does beat me sometimes though Especially if Im too wild in my moves but thats to be expected I do enjoy whiling away my time on it Good game worth the price              Good game
This is the same as all the others rolls doubles when it is behind Calling all developers leave your ego at the door and develop a BG app that doesnt need to cheat     Why isnt there a BG app that doesnt cheat
I am happy to have found this game                 Good game
I have played Backgammon all my life and I am good I do not play cards this is my game It just gets the perfect rolls a lot too often           Fun but it CHEATS
It is fairly easy to use and the hard level is decent I usually beat it to 15 points but not always I wish it saved stats The hard opponent seems to get a little too lucky at times              Fun and a little challenging
I can almost predict the dice rolls     It cheats
On most difficult mode it most often wins just by rolling a lot of doubles not by smart playing Also the doubles die is not always available and there is no accumulating score that Ive noticed           Mediocre
Suggestion Let the dice roll random not controlled by the computer Rsv              Backgammon pro
This game cheats Dice rolls go for AI to win AI will get doubles and perfect dice rolls to win game or match Dont believe the game builders Game cheated to win        CHEATER
How about a resign button              When all is lost
This is the best backgammon app compared to all the others I play this multiple times a day For the most part its pretty honest against the computer This particular one on my phone has no adds at the bottom of the game So no distractions I really do love this app                 Pretty good
Simple to play                 Good game
Tried several versions of backgammon and I think this is the best available in terms of most closely approximating the real game and giving the player maximum options It is a little slow but its tolerable              Best available
I learned how to play using this app Its not perfect but its fun              Good for practice
After reading other reviews the common complaint is cheating by using better dice rolls and repeated dice doubles by the opposition I agree all this is in the game Astounding that the programmers havent addressed these issues No wonder sales are meager Buyer beware     Cheats
Fun game to play but some quirks are just plain annoying like nowhere can I find the doubling cube Also when I touch a piece to move the game algorithm moves it but not always where I want it placed Ive played backgammon for 50 years there has to be a better program           Wheres the doubling die
Like others who have reviewed this game I have found that the dice algorithm they must use is not realistic As an experienced player I play on Difficult and have found that whenever I try to play the odds of the rolls the computer will almost always produce a roll in its favor ie if I leave some dots open based on the odd of getting bumped it will always nail me Frustrating It does also do some dumb moves The only way of being sure of beating it is to play ultra conservative           Good But needs help
Great interface and good feel to the game but it cheats a lot White goes first the majority of the time so I changed my color to white now black goes first the majority of the time Convenient rolls allow the computer to get exactly what it needs most every time There have been a lot of bug fixes over the years and the cheating has decreased but its still very frustrating You can look at the board and 75 of the time know what it will roll        The computer cheats a LOT
Great app having fun              Backgammon
Nice solid backgammon app Does what you expect it to and is a very stable application Battery usage isnt bad                 Worth the price
I have been playing this app for a few years and really enjoy it but as others mention when playing on highest difficulty the computer plays a bit smarter but mostly it just gets better rolls It also tends to double in unlikely eg even or loosing scenarios then proceeds to roll multiple sets of high doubles Thus if one plays rather conservatively one can easily beat the computer 21 or better Suggestions Please improve the algorithm and logic and add a feature to quickly end the game when it becomes impossible for one side to win              Very good but
Theres nothing random about the rolls They are designed to give the advantage to the computer more double rolls more 65 combinations early more rolls the exact combination to get him out of trouble prevent you from creating blocks or putting your men in jeopardy which he takes advantage of Then occasionally plays really stupid so you can win Yuk     Dont buy this game
I like the animation of the rolling dice and movement of the pips and the different levels It is more than a coincidence that the computer rolls just what it needs but denies the player Or moves the pips just one more spot leaving you open and then rolling the exact number needed to set you back Despite these frustrations I enjoy playing it for hours at a time You will too              Fun backgammon game
I have never played Backgammon so Ive learned the game from this app and I am addicted I love this app                 Fun and Addictive
Algorithms all wrong No true roll of the dice     Worst backgammon game
Nice relaxing no thought needed              Fun
I knew I should have tried it before I bought it W A S T E Terrible design animations etc Horrible     Bad Decision
Dice rolls could be more random           Good
good game                 Best
I like the look of the board the ease of making moves and the highlighting of possible moves              Clean
Ad for game Lyft keeps canceling game And I have the no ad version        Backgammon
I beat the computer 4 out of 5 times but honestly there are only a few moves that I would ever question that computer makes in error Its just the programmers style just like we all have a style Ive played many many hours on it Its well worth it One suggestion to the programmers is that they need to get their chips out the back court is that what its called so there is no backgammon ruled against the computers score Its triple points for that                 Good game
1 You would not believe how many doubles the computer player throws Ha what a farce 2 When Im hit and the opponents board is blocking me from getting back on the board why in the world do I have to waste time throwing the dice I cant play on the throw anyhow 3 this along with any other on line backgammon just done not play out as a game would in the real world T           Computer Wins
Ill start by saying I like this game and play it a lot I have some issues with it though I wish it kept stats Why wouldnt it The AI almost always gets the better roll to see who moves first at least 85 of the time Also how can this first roll never come up doubles Questionable The AI gets some unbelievable rolls to land on one of my single checkers I never get these kinds of rolls The timely doubles rolls by the AI again questionable Other than that I like the graphics and overall play of the game Can be a challenge              Good game but
Great game Can chose what level your good at                 Great game
The score is 2 to 2 There is no doubling cube The artificial intelligence doubles anyway I stopped playing this game over a year ago because after reporting the problem twice it never got fixed Played again today Surprise Still not fixed They take your money and run Too bad because other than that its a good game Changed my rating againthis time to a 2        Still not fixed Dont waste your money
A good backgammon game If set on hard the computer will cheat For example I have seen the computer roll doubles 4 times in a row              Good game
Great app but two problems One is that the constant reminders about whos first or moves not being available are not needed Second there is no statistical record of wins losses gammons etc should be              Love it but
Read a bunch of negative reviews but bought it anyway Dumb move Reviews are accurate Weird how many times the computer gets favorable rolls especially doubles Not a coincidence Deleted the app     Ripoff
I feel chested out of 2 This version is identical to the free version I already had     Review
Tried many kept one                 Works and reliable
The Pro version is exactly the same as the free version Im sorry I bought it     Do not waste your money
Ehh Paid for full version just as easy and whats up with the doubling cube seems stay at 2 no countering Pretty lame AI I played probably 18 games before I lost Save you money or find a better app        Backgammon
Great interface the the program gets a lot better rolls 9 time out of 10 the program will get a better roll and go first Count on the program getting a series of high doubles after a double challenge is accepted A lot of times player rolls series of low rolls at the same time the program will get high rolls           Ok unfair dice
I agree with the reviewers who wrote about the AI being very lucky and easy to beat However this is the best backgammon Ive tried There are a couple of changes Id like to see Allow the game to roll doubles on the opening roll and up the doubling cube The AI winning sound has got to go please replace this Add some statistics on games won matches won etc lastly give the AI multiple personalities Conservativeagressive etc would very the game play a bit              Suggestions
I upgrade and what a waste of money as I see no difference between the Pro and the other regular one Dont waste your money        Backgammon Pro
Enjoy playing this game regularly Recommende              Fun times
