pretty okay. the game play is smoother than some backgammon apps, but not the smoothest. the 2 second delay between turns gets tiresome.

Ive tried pretty much all the backgammon apps out there and as far as online backgammon games, this is by far the best. Opponents cant quit on you without automatic penalties which is the best feature. All the rolls are true. No ridiculous numerous doubles coming up like in other apps. Time limits for slow opponents. And nice board. Tons of fresh new, different players all the time. They have s huge membership base it is obvious which is great. Never a problem finding a game. No chatting allowed which is nice and no way to contact your opponent which is great too so no one can harass you for the few angry players out there lol. For the solo play, I have only noticed one issue. The rolls are not true. When you play in easy mode, the computer gets unusually bad rolls and plays really dumb and you get amazingly lucky rolls lol. If you play in the hard mode, the computer cheats and gets great rolls all the time, while you get terribly unlucky rolls after roll. So solo play is not so fun, but the online play is the BEST!
Great game ..the best!
This is great if you need a game and no one else is around. You can really improve your game playing against AI.
Great game, good graphics
Ive never had such a consistent stretch of being out rolled by opponent. Ridiculous. Game after game after game.
Perfect game for what I wanted! Challenging and fun but sometimes it seems the outer has a little edge.
So far so good ... Only had the app 4 about 6 hrs now ??
A very good game. Very well made. Easy to manipulate. I like so much. But i find the hard level is too much hard. I need to play like more that 10 rounds to win one time! Im not sure the algorithm fair enough! Im a pro player and still find it hard
I love this game!!!!!
Just an awful bit of programming. Its like instead of being random the rolls are programmed to make hits. Just a ridiculous app.
This app is exactly what it should be, a couple rules are different than I remember from playing but everyone always has their own rules! Its great for playing with friends, the only down side is you cant leave the game and return to it.
this is one of worst game that i played you know why? every time i played with computer and suggested me a double it will get as double as it can !!! it means you have to lose no way ...i counted several times and i found it very disappointing when it gives you 2-1 /1-3 it receieved 6-6 / 4-4 and go on
I wrote a review a while back saying this game wasnt too bad....I take that back. It is terrible. The dice "randomness" is bad. You will play for several days and it will be impossible to get a bad roll. Then it will turn on you and you will hit a streak where the dice will give your opponent every roll they need, every time, no fail. You could knock one of your opponents tiles off the board and have only a single open spot where it can start back on, and they will get the roll they need. Turn the tables, and you be knocked off but your opponent has 4 out of 5 open spots and you will continually roll doubles for the one spot that is blocked off. This game is very poor.
its alright
Ive been playing for a while now (easy ,medium, hard) and I think one of the differences is the lack of randomness of the dice rolling. Games against computer are quick. Games against others are slow.
Title says it all
Dice roll is obviously not random. I gave it a try for a couple of weeks but ended up deleting and finding another game.
Love the challenge of the Hard setting but computer constantly succeeds in long odds rolls. ie:1 in 18 chance of hitting the roll it needs and it gets it--CONSTANTLY!! it gets very frustrating when you play a perfect game and still lose to rigged dice.
