## Description

FaceMe Backgammon delivers a feature-rich, social backgammon experience. Invite friends or play random opponents, use Game Center auto-match, or enjoy local network and pass-the-device play. You can switch the board home position, swap colors, chat during network games (with chat optional), and rely on progressive undo, last-move replay, and a robust dice system to keep matches engaging.

Powered by neural-network AI, it supports 1/3/5 or unlimited-point matches, a doubling cube, 60-second move limits for Game Center auto-matches, and extensive statistics that track wins, points, matches, and dice data. The universal app features enhanced iPad/retina graphics, multiple dice algorithms, and a settings screen to tailor the experience—show all possible moves or use one-tap moves for quick play, with leaderboards and achievements to fuel competition.

## Review summary

Reviewers praise FaceMe Backgammon for polished visuals, smooth gameplay, and versatile play options (solo AI and online play), plus long-running support. However, many express concerns about fairness: dice that seem biased, frequent doubles, and perfect rolls for the computer, fueling accusations of cheating. Some report freezes, save-state issues, and network problems, as well as subscription gating or unclear purchase hassles and weak support. Overall sentiment is mixed: strong design and playability are overshadowed by fairness concerns and occasional technical/purchasing frustrations.

### Pros

- Polished visuals and smooth gameplay with intuitive controls.
- Versatile play options: solo AI practice and play against real opponents.
- Long-running, well-supported app with years of usage and stable performance.
- Easy-to-use interface with single-tap fast play.

### Cons

- Dice appear non-random and biased toward the computer, with too many doubles and 'perfect' rolls.
- Perceived unfairness at higher difficulty; computer seems to get better rolls more often.
- Technical issues like freezing, network problems, and problems saving game state.
- Gating by subscription/purchase and poor support/contactability.
