Community Insight:
Love the game! Still loving the game! Still enjoying the game.
Unlike so many other versions that make the rolls magically be the worst possible. This game makes truly randomized dice rolls.
Keeps our mind active. We enjoy it even though its challenging.
Bought this app , so far the game crashes when looking for a partner. Also takes a long time to authenticate,which is ridiculous since you paid for it. Also unbelievable , roll of dice see seems like it always in favor of opponent. Love the game but this app needs a lot of improvements.
One of the best backgammon games.
Playing against the computer helps us to learn how to play and Im really enjoying it.
Rivals chess only less complicated.
Please stop with all the ads, we were playing a full game with no interruptions, now Im interrupted at least 4 times/game. Please.
Game is great, however,too many adds interfering with the playing the game. The interruptions should be prior to the start and after the game end NOT DURING GAME.
Very entertaiment, never had problem with crash.
What a great game!! Ive been playing this game for a long time and its the best of its kind.
Computer wins more often than not…..we just change game & works better.
Plays well. We win and lose, so we feel its fair.
Great game! We have been playing this game for a while now, but lately we have been having problems when it. When it first opens up it freezes and doesnt respond, we try to close it, we even erased the game and reinstalled it, to see if the problem goes away, but it still has some problems at times.
We enjoy playing this game with our grandson. We love watching him progress and really give a lot of thought before he makes a move. He originally played with speed and made a lot of mistakes. We kept trying to get him to think before he moved and he finally got the message. Hes becoming a great opponent.
Loving this game. Been looking for acey ducy for years. Just wish they would add betting options.
We have tried several. Backgammon games but this one is great.
Great fun to play. Graphics are superb and colorful. Very exceptional game.
This version of backgammon is great.
The game is great because its fun and challenging. Outstanding game.
This is a fun game that is challenging. Offers various levels.
Helping us learn to play Backgammon.
Too many advertisers in the middle of a game. Should put them at the end pf each game if you need to put them.
We like this game but it sometime doesnt allow us to make the right choices! We dont get as many doubles as you.
Since we downloaded the update, we have encountered too many malfunctions. The game is not worth it anymore.. Game pieces sometimes deminish in size, going from normal size to minature. Can hardly see pieces. The colors constantly change from the traditional green/black to different shades of pink etc.
This is the best application for backgammon. We would highly recommend this application.
Enjoying backgammon. Might spend too much idle time playing it tho.
At times, you cannot win! These times are few and far between. We have played several different backgammon games. By far this is the BEST! We have an IPAD now and do not know how to upgrade to get rid of ads.
We love to play this game. It is challenging and fun.
Great game we highly recommend it.
Games go quickly and not a lot of videos you have to watch.
Just wish that the game had less ads.
More competitive than other AI opponents.
Love Acey Deucy, Fascinating game!AD still our favorite still enjoying this game.
If you want a game you can play with no phone service, this game will keep your mind sharp and entertain you.
Love playing the game only dislike all the adds.
Love the game but we notice a lot of doubles are in favor of the computer. Just had back to back games that we should have gotten a gammon and no double came our way when we were in our inner court. The computer got 3 doubles, 2 double 6s and one double 5. Not fun. And too many ads.
Love playing backgammon. We always have someone to play against.
The game is fantastic.It moves at a good pace. We would like to know how to get rid of the ads that pop up while Im playing.
We love the game but the only problem we have is when it goes to an ad and comes back the pawns on the board are extremely tiny and we have to go to menu back out then come back in and then its ok sometimes. Sometimes we have to back out of the game all together and restart the game all together. That does get a little frustrating from time to time . You might want to see about checking into that.
Excellent game and very realistic.
Its a great game to pass the time enjoyable to. We Great fun,.
We played many years ago. We liked it then and now.
No longer reduces size of pieces after an ad runs.
Thank you so much for having this app. Im addicted.
It is rather amazing how the computer always gets the dice roll it needs. But we still have always have loved this game. We enjoy it and the assignments it give each day.
This is a game that we have enjoyed playing for years and its a good way to pass extra time. Its also a good game to use for a type of therapy.
We love playing backgammon and it keeps us up on our skills.
More fun than rat stompin at the dump.
Best game in town , perfect for relaxing.
