User Reviews

Overall, users praise the app as a favorite and enjoyable, with strong visuals and challenging high-level play. However, a dominant concern is perceived unfairness: many users feel the AI and dice are rigged in the computer’s favor, especially at harder levels, with frequent doubles and non-random outcomes. Some also report inaccurate end-of-game stats. Despite the controversy, it remains a popular, addictive Backgammon app for many players.

Pros

Favored by many as the best/best-backgammon app; described as a favorite and must-have.
Fun, engaging and addictive gameplay that keeps players coming back.
Challenging at high levels, providing a tough opponent for experienced players.
Positive visuals/aesthetics mentioned by users.

Cons

Perceived cheating or rigging: dice and AI often seen as favoring the CPU and producing favorable rolls.
Unreliable end-of-game statistics reported by some users (inaccurate or inconsistent results).
Higher-level play issues: consistent complaints about unfairness or imbalance at difficult levels (e.g., frequent CPU doubles, perfect rolls).

Recent reviews

Very good design & easy-to-use backgammon app. Helped me improve my overall play against real opponents. The dice rolls seem to be random even at the highest level. However, the "Auto Bear Off" option seems to me to use a less-than-optimal algorithm so I don't use it when the game is close.

Don't get this app...Dice are fixed and a ton of apps!!!

I literally lost WHILE cheating. This game is a cheat at higher levels, so I figured turnabout was fair play. Higher level just equals better roles for the CPU. Actual skill does not change. How did I cheat? You can undo moves, so every time the CPU got some insane role to send me to the block, I undid the moves and chose the optimal path. I am NOT new to backgammon. I STILL LOST MULTIPLE GAMES! Don't take my word for it, try it yourself. There are 100 other reviews saying the same thing I am.
