Ratings and reviews

Dice are anything but random distribution. That's the only way the weak AI can compete. Movement is clunky, there are times it won't let you move, particularly near the end of a game when you roll a one and a larger number, it won't let you move the larger roll. Be prepared for the AI to roll exactly what's needed to get off the rail, typically as doubles. Your doubles come when bearing off your final piece. It's ok, needs work. Saw 6 sets of doubles in a row for AI, my 6 rolls were 5 and under

I can't give more than one star on a BG app if you can't undo a move once you have moved a checker. I mean while it's still your turn, i.e. you have not clicked End Turn yet. The one match I played I lost for this reason, pretty ridiculous. There are a host of other issues that I won't be delving into because I immediately uninstalled, but they include no doubling cube and moving checkers is clunky. Swipe and drag is okay but needs work. Simple tap to move is indispensable in a BG app.

Very well built app. The audio acoustics are very nice. The dark colors of the board display dignity. Thanks again.
