Backgammon ▽‪▲‬ 17+

Two gripes about this game. 1) When moving checkers off the board, the computer requires you to move the lowest number first before you can move the higher number. I’ve been playing backgammon for over 40 years and have never heard of this “rule”. Not all app games make you move checkers off in this way. 2) For the life of me, I cannot figure out how to “undo” a move. If someone knows the secret, please post it here

I've played BG for years on my phone, but this version seems to be different. When moving chips off board, it forces you to take the lower number first. Example, if you roll 6 & 1, but no chip on the 6 spot, but a chip on the 5 & 1 spot, you can't move the 5 off the board, it wants to move the 5 to the 4 spot, unless you use the 1 dice to move off the chip on the 1 spot. Also, if you roll a pair of 5's & are in the move chips off the board phase, with no chips on the 5 spot, it will let you move a chip on the 6 spot off the board, when it should just move the 6 chip to the 1 space.

Also, when trying to move a chip to a spot on the board shown as an option i.e. It shows as a possible move, you must try several times to move it.

As others have said, the computer is very predictable in its moves. Always moves chip from farthest spot first, unless it has opportunity to hit 1 of your chips.

I like the music but wish you could play a full game instead of just 1 round. The game should continue until you or computer reaches 5 or higher points first.

Playing against the computer, even in “hard” mode, the computer uses no proper backgammon strategy at all, meaning if you know anything about Backgammon, you can always win. The computer never protects open pieces or build up its home and always goes for picking up your open piece even if it’s a bad play. The few times the computer even had the chance to take pieces off the board at the end of the game, it always makes terrible choices, like moving pieces forward even when other pieces could have been moved off. It’s no challenge and not fun after the initial thrill of humiliating your computer opponent once or twice.
