User reviews

Great to keep my skills up to date. It's fun. I won't play Backgammon too much though, because the real challenge is Chess. No dice, no luck.

The rolls are most definitely rigged especially when you get to the expert level. I've written random number generator programs that work way better than this one. I can not believe that a random generator would give you 4 (and this happened to me numerous times) of the same rolls in a row. . When I see the program starting to roll out too many identical rolls in a row I clear out my history and then, amazingly, that stops happening. Also, as aside, as an expert player I can not understand some of the bad moves the computer has made when they had the option of better ones. I just want fair play no matter which side wins. As an expert player I expect to lose sometimes but when I win I want it to be because of a fair game not because the computer gave me an amazing, and stupid, opening.
