Gamão ▽‪▲‬ +4

The game is fine, a little heavy with the ads. But the most frustrating aspect is trying to play championships. You can win the first game and select the button to continue playing in the championship, but after (another) ad, the game board stays frozen on the previous game. Does not matter how long you wait, cannot get to next game. Arrggghhhhh!

I signed up and played this game that I thought was an honest game. This game you have options to bet 0 coins, 5, 20 and 50. After playing for awhile I informed the owner that double rolls just don’t happen in the real world. Example: One opponent I played against rolled 5 double 6's. They told me that could honestly happen. I’ve played backgammon for over 50 years and such a thing just doesn’t happen. I played against an opponent who rolled in consecutive order double 6's then 5's then 4's. One night recently I decided to play games where I bet 50 coins for 13 STRAIGHT GAMES. I didn’t win one game because of terrible rolls and opponents constantly rolling doubles. So I stopped playing that night and thought I’d try again the next night. So the next night I played 8 games betting 50 coins for each. Of the 8 games I played I only won 2 games and the only reason I won those is because those opponents timed out which automatically gave me 50 coins each for those 2 games.
If you want to play backgammon there’s other games out there that are honest.

It’s all about a fair roll…right? When I’m just playing the AI I expect it to cheat. And it does. A lot (Hard). But when I’m playing someone in, say, Turkey, I expect fair rolls. Doesn’t happen with the frequency it should. How? Example? Just played a game I was winning when the opponent got three doubles in a row. Twice in this game, the opponent got two doubles in a row. In the meantime, I’m getting 1/2 or 2/3…over and over again. And then there are the number of times in other games I’ve played where the opponent gets more successful rolls to put me on the bar than is logical. So I delete the app, then reload it and try again (Einstein’s theory of doing the same thing over again expecting different results). Right now, I just redownloaded it though I know I’m going to be frustrated again
