- To start the backgammon game, players take turns and roll the dice. That’s why free backgammon is often called a dice game.
- In backgammon players move pieces based on the numbers rolled. For example, if you roll 2 and 5, you can move one piece 2 points and another one 5 points. Alternatively, you can move one piece 7 points.

I like this game. It's attractive and easy to play, but the random number generator is not random. The computer opponent nearly always gets fantastic, often game saving rolls. It goes beyond the computer maximizing its opportunities. No human opponent would ever have the kind of "luck" the computer opponent has. If you are looking to improve your backgammon skills, this game will do it. You have to play exceptionally well to win.

I think it cheats. The dice throws don't seem to be all that random. I noticed that it gets significantly more doubles than I do. on the last game, it got six doubles and I got none. Seriously. I counted. Also, long ads in the middle of the game ruin the flow. Uninstalling. And, yes. I understand statistics. I noticed it from the very beginning of playing.

Hi George, thanks for the review! Our game is programmed and tested to make sure that both players have the same chance of rolling doubles. Please note that probability is a long-run relative frequency, so you won't necessarily get as many doubles as the opponent in a single game.

This can be lots of fun. But there are times when dice get strange. I definitely understand in a rl game, sometimes you play someone who is on a lucky streak, and they keep shooting doubles. But when you play a tournament and everyone you play, is rolling 5 to 6 sets of double to your 1 set of double time and time again, then there's something wrong with the algorithm.
