About this game

★ Top Developer (awarded 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2015) ★
AI Factory's Backgammon is the best free Backgammon game on Android!

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 been played in Mesopotamia and Egypt thousands of years ago, then by the Romans and later in India. It also spread to East Asia, but was largely replaced by Xiangqi (Chinese chess). It is now very popular in the West.

Great game but I have to agree that something odd is going on when I play level 7. It appears that it is not a matter of the computer being more skillful, but rather the odds are in its favor. Dice rolls are constantly what it needs and it gets out much easier than I ever do, especially when only one slot is open. I find myself cursing at my phone way too often.

An illusion I'm afraid. The program makes good statistical decisions in placing its pieces. That is what strong programs do. Its dice are 100% fair. The tests provided in aifactory.co.uk/bg.htm allow you to conclusively prove that the dice throws have not been tampered with. Absurdly all Backgammon programs are accused of cheating. Unlikely any do.

This game level 7 is unwinnable. Sure you do occasionally but computer is rigged to always hit, never get hit, doubles frequently while pairing off, never stays more then twice on bar and you can be up there at least 5 or 6 rolls. These cases are the majority of course. Not everytime but way more then usual. You almost have to play unorthodox to compete, you make the perfect logical move and the computer always beats you then. Very frustrating

If you keep playing you will eventually hit "impossible" sequences. You can see the same by just endlessly re-throwing real dice. You can easily and conclusively prove non-cheating by running the tests we provide. See aifactory.co.uk/bg.htm. All Backgammon programs are accused of cheating, but very unlikely any do.

The scorecard presentation was recently updated. Unfortunately, it now reflects the amount of doubles each player got versus the total amount rolled during the match. This information is much more significant. I believe the developers should either add that information or return to the previous scorecard. Update 12/2023I believe I purchased this game over a decade ago. I've enjoyed it for years. As of late I'm not sure what attempts are being made to change the game play but it's disappointing.

Game play changes gave been to make it stronger, but you still have access to old weaker levels. Updated stats show total # of rolls + # of doubles rolled + % doubles rolled + total dice value rolled + total value of doubles rolled for each player. If you prefer to old scoreboard format, please tap "Show Less" in top right of in-game stats.

What's new

Update to correct oversight in last version, that would have impacted level 7.
