Fun but buggy

I really enjoy this app and the variations it offers, but the aces deucey crashes often because the computer player is allowed to make an illegal play. It's not trying to cheat but ends up in an internal error that causes the app to crash. Still worth the download if you enjoy backgammon. Update: tried latest version, but can only select double 6 after rolling 1+2, other doubles seem disabled. Other games seem to work great.

Best Backgammon App ever & best customer service

The developer and this whole app is amazing. They are always upgrading their app to fix the bugs and they have an impressively fast response rate when you message them on FB messenger for help or to give feedback. I have been using this app for a few years off and on. My favorite part is just about everything!-you can play all the Tavli games not just portes-you can play tournaments in order with portes, plakato, fevga-you can play games online with other players-you can play by yourself against the phone or with another physical person (or yourself)

Buggiest game ever

Been playing a couple years. Game still has major major bugs. Today it allowed my opponent to capture me in a game where you don’t/shouldn’t be able to capture the opponent’s checker. That checker was stuck for a long time and my other checkers were in différent places on MY board compared to my opponent’s board. THEN, to top it off, near the end of the game, my opponent’s game shut down and restarted. I took a couple screen shots. We have a game-ruining bug at least once every 5 games. The bug are horrendous. Never had any game or app with incessant and major bugs like this. I really don’t understand why the developers can’t fix these.

Cool options but not fair dicing

I Love backgammon and have MANY different applications for it. While this app offers some less commonly know variations on the basic game (which is GREAT), the “levels” of expertise are not based on strategy but instead they rely on the computer getting “perfect rolls” of the dice in order to win. That’s very disappointing.
