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.

Ratings and reviews

Love the game itself. The UI is flawless and UX is excellent as well. AI needs a lot of improvement, especially after the break point when it's a pure race. I also wish that there was an option to auto-roll when you're completely blocked off, similar to when you "auto bear off". Show some love to your paying customers and improve the game please.

It cheats ridiculously. Ever wonder how these backgammon games vary their level of difficulty? Here's how: on the most difficult settings, the computer gives itself doubles much more frequently early and late in the game, when they do the most good. Meanwhile, the probability that you will roll at least one 2 - 1 late in the game, when it does the most harm, is essentially 100%. Count your incidences of rolling 2-1 late. You'll see. This game is a joke. Unfortunately, the joke's on you.

I'm pretty sure the difficulty setting just determines how good the rolls are for the player and computer. response: I was kinda kidding. I do love this version. edit: nah, the coincidences are too much. I often get dozens of double rolls when I can't use them and none when I need them. seems like every time the cou doubles the next roll they get the best possible. edit2: if you could watch one of these games you'd be surprised. ridiculous streaks of rolls. and yet I can't stop playing
