Backgammon

Can't believe people are saying it cheats. If your not playing well then it will always seems like the opposition is getting 'lucky rolls'. Can get around 50% win rate at expert level so that figures well. Took up full screen on my old Galaxy S, unfortunately the high res screen kn my new S3 means the game has shrunk in size. This should be an easy fix for the developer!

This is the only android app I found that lets you play on FIBS, and it works great. A few other features would be nice please: - bigger board - allow doubling by clicking the cube - save .mat match log file for each match And I've been playing backgammon seriously for 10 years, and I do NOT think the expert AI cheats. It gets just as many good and bad rolls as I do.

It gets too many perfect rolls. I get none. Example: I am on the bar with 2 open pips. I regularly will bounce 2 or 3 times. That is not how the odds go! It also gets the rolls it needs even when thete are very few combinations that are good for it. I uninstalled and won't play this backgammon program again!

I'm not great, but i'm pretty good. And I'm willing to say the rolls are fair. But why is the difference between the hardest and second hardest so huge? I beat hard without fail; expert is dauntingly hard. And, considering we're playing on phones, why can't I correct an inadvertent move?

I was beating the Hard level 75% so upgraded. I am now beating Expert 57% so it can't be that tough. Dice still seem perfectly random to me. Lots of good and bad throws for both players, which is normal. People who find they can't double sometimes should Google "Crawford Rules" which will explain everything.

It takes on average 65 points to get all the token out when they are all home. Without exception, when in this position AI will get on average a 30 points on the dice. There is no way this is random. Internet play was passable, but of late, there's no decent player who will finish a losing match. App is worthless. Uninstalling, as I write this. I'll also make sure never to install an other app from same developer.

Can't work out how to access settings, resign or double. No instructions anywhere in interface and have not been able to do anything other than roll dice and play at default level which us probably 'easy'.

Well, I never thought I'd have a bad thing to say about this game. I've had this on different platforms over 5 years since my vintage blackberry. But as screen resolutions increase this game keeps shrinking. This game is tiny in the middle of my galaxy s3 screen. Come on guys adjusting to screen resolution is a basic software feature. Get with the present. Screen size still sucks. LAME! C'mon guys - FIX THIS!!

Probably a ghost app no longer supported, game is size of a dime on your nice big screen. Don't waste your time. No developer attention for a long time.

The dice in this game is definitely programmed, it is far from being random. This makes it totally uninteresting and silly.

I have put this game to the test. It "FAILS BIG TIME". It's unbelievable how many times it rolls DOUBLES at the right time,an the right SET of DOUBLE

Played this game for years on various phones and loved it, but on new galaxy s4 the board is a postage stamp in the middle of the screen! Please sort the resolution out and my rating will be back to a 5.

This game has a great interface, but once you get to expert mode, the dice work against you. AI rolls a dissproportionate number of timely doubles.

Single player game is pointless, fibs is good though. Fixed dice does NOT equal more difficult.

Good (not great) little app but will NOT move to SD. HTC Sensation. Dev asked me for proof I bought app when contacted! Gone to another game-better 1.

The programmers couldn't make a good AI so they gave it an advantage with the dice. DON'T BUY. It is not like playing real backgammon.

Plays a mean game but doesn't cheat. It's just very hard to beat because it plays to the odds of the next roll. A very polished and enjoyable app. Unfortunately it hasn't been updated for a long time and doesn't adapt to hd screens - it is postage stamp size on my Xperia Z1 :(

Simple statistics dictate my conclusion that the dice rolls are not entirely random. Look for something better.

Crashes instantly (Android N)

Unfinished games whether your fault or not, count against you. Get 10 unfinished games online and you can't play until you track down the "dropper".

Expert level is impossible, never knew there was a skill to rolling the perfect roll everytime. No fun.

After installation the size of the game is only a thumbnail size. I contacted them, no reply. I purchased, no difference.. Waste of money. Ripp off.

Would be a really great game if you turds that play online opponents on FIBS and drop in the middle of matches would just play the AI. GROW THE F UP!!

Idiots

As others have moticex, the "AI" cheats blatantly on exepert mode. Save your money.

Fun game but no way the rolls are random. The game gets what it needs every time while you get ones and twos

Dice are set to cheat!! Don't waste your money.

Very basic . I got a 5 in screen and it uses 1 1/2 inches of it . Very cumbersome to use

Display is so small I can hardly read the dice.

But it scales real bad on tablets and on galaxy note. Does not fill entire screen.

Totally cheats on expert. 100% of the time if you accept a double it will get the exact roll needed. Fibs client is good but dont bother playing cpu.

Game play wont let you select what you want. I want my money back....

Hard mode revised to eliminate blatantly juiced rolls, but expert mode still gets exactly the rolls it needs WAY more than it should.

OK game that has a habit of getting just the right roll of the dice... kept track of double rolls one day and it averaged 4 to 1 for the computer.

I find it hard to believe that every time the CPU gets behind it "randomly" rolls doubles 4-5 times in a row... possible, but not likely that it would occur as often in this game. Uninstalling.

By not offering expert in free version, you are robbed in discovering after payment, that expert level is a RIP-OFF & all other levels are too easy!!

The game cheats majorly!!!

Careful playing this game cheats. I constantly rolls doubles over and over. It's just amazing.

Just want to say thank you to the devs for a speedy response to a bonehead move I did. Also, I play the game every hour on the hour.

Free lite version is fair, full paid version cheats consistently on expert level. Save your money.
