Kanso Backgammon
Offline 3D board: two or AI
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Your backgammon table, wherever you are. Play offline, learn on the board and inspect your dice rolls. No ads. Optional Premium is a one-time purchase.
Play backgammon offline, learn directly on the board and inspect your dice rolls. Kanso Backgammon brings a tactile 3D table to your iPhone and iPad.
ON IPAD AND ON THE GO
Enjoy a spacious table on iPad or carry backgammon in your pocket on iPhone. Both play in landscape, with board framing and controls adapted to the device.
A BOARD THAT FEELS PHYSICAL
Detailed 3D boards, individually finished checkers, physical dice, cinematic light, and curated lounge music turn every match into a quiet ritual.
PLAY KANSO—FULLY OFFLINE
Face a capable local AI at clearly calibrated strengths. Kanso never sees the next roll and never receives better dice. Your match stays private and works without the cloud.
FAIRNESS YOU CAN INSPECT
The roll log records the dice. After the match, the sequence can be verified, with technical details available on request. Dice statistics compare both sides; they do not measure your playing strength.
LEARN ON THE BOARD
An interactive beginner tutorial explains the board, direction, legal points, hits, the bar, and bearing off at the actual table. Optional move assistance shows rule-legal choices. With Premium, Focus compares complete move sequences, identifies concrete consequences, and shows engine-estimated chances.
ONE IPAD, TWO PLAYERS
Sit opposite each other or side by side. Information, camera direction, and dice trays respect the seating arrangement.
YOUR GAME WILL WAIT
Pause a match and return to the same position and remaining dice. Choose a scene and board for a new game, or play a rematch after the finale.
FREE
Complete matches against Kanso and another person, tutorial, move assistance, roll log, basic statistics and dice distributions, one scene, and one board. Ad-free.
