Overall, users praise the app for being simple, user-friendly, and fun, with the game feeling true to backgammon and easy for beginners to pick up. The most common complaints are missing features (no doubling cube, no game history/stats), unattractive board/graphics, intrusive ads, and concerns about dice rolls being unfair or unreliable. A few stability issues and input quirks were noted as well, but core gameplay remains engaging for many players.

FUN, RELAXING AND PERFECT FOR BEGINNERS !!! The music, the colours and the functioning are really perfect, a happy pleasure to use. I have been happily playing this everyday since I discovered it.

No doubting cube! No option to play for 5, 7, 9, 11, and 15 points. No records of games played, along with stats, etc. No assessment of play. A very basic backgame game for someone very new to the game. Most of the boards look rather silly.

Started off on a good note but finding it crashes at odd times, though not during a game; usually at starting or ending period. Not tried two player but as single player I noticed there's no doubling cube. Clicks aren't always intuitive to the engine if you click on a piece so it's best to drag the first move to it's destination so the second one will automatically go to the correct place when you click or drag on it. Okay for a few games but doesn't chart any history ...but, hey, few ads!

I played this as a child or tried to. I came across it and decided I wanted to learn to play again. This game is challenging, and it pushes me to keep going.
