About Backgammon
★ Top Developer (awarded 2013) ★
Same as our "Backgammon Free", but no Ads.
Backgammon is a game of skill and strategy; one of the world's classic parlour board games, played for recreation and gambling. Like Mahjong, Backgammon is played in social groups in coffee houses and bars. Historically, variants of this game are believed to have originated in Egypt over 3000 years ago, from where it was adopted by the Romans and then later travelled to India. It also spread to East Asia, but was largely replaced by Xiangqi (Chinese chess). It is now very popular in the West.
Featuring:
-- Strong Backgammon AI
-- 5 Difficulty levels
-- Full match play + Doubling Cube & Crawford rule options
-- 6 Boards and 4 Piece Sets
-- Single Player vs Computer or local 2 Player
-- Hint & Stats
-- Random Dice generator or Manual Dice input
-- Designed for both Tablet and Phone
*Does the Backgammon engine cheat? See "CPU Strategy" page + Manual Dice option (use real-world dice) to prove to yourself that it doesn't*

Fun & challenging.
Great i love this app
Addicting. I pass all my time in waiting rooms playing this game.
I really enjoy board games from this developer. I have their chess as well. I like the layout and interface. No gimmicks, good for adults, nothing goofy. I like the auto-bear off function when the game is almost done.
Great game. I'm a big fan of backgammon and at first yes, it seemed like the CPU was unbeatable and cheating but after lots more study of the game and research on bots I really feel that the system is not cheating as the developers have nicely explained in great detail. It's just hard for us mere mortals to comprehe...
Good fun.
