BEAUTY IS IN THE EYE OF THE BEHOLDER - GAME BOARDS We didn't just strive to make a good AI and fluid gameplay, we also made it our mission to make it look good. No, not just good... we wanted to make them look drop dead gorgeous good. We found a skilled designer and then tortured him with feedback until we were satisfied. The result are two boards (metal and wood) which look awesome, while providing little visual distraction to let you focus on your strategy. And for those who love a little distraction, we let the designer run wild with a selection of (optional) fancy boards, rich with decor and beautiful details. Which one is your favorite? AAAND ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE BOARD, A MULTIPLE OLYMPIC CHAMPION AI - BEEE GEEEE BLITZ From time to time there is an olympic tournament for backgammon programs. We convinced the maker of the three times winner BGBlitz to make his AI available to the users of True Backgammon. This AI is a world class opponent for those who only want to match up against the best. And it is a patient mentor. BGBlitz offers a tutor mode, that will point out moves that are less than optimal, and it will show better ones. It will also offer you statistics, and you can export your current match into the common sgf format to analyze it with other applications like XG2, BGBlitz or gnuBG. WHAT ELSE CAN WE SAY? Long story short, we put a lot of effort into this app, not just into the game play, but on every level. If you choose it, we are sure you will not be disappointed.
You still can’t seem to fix your app
Once again my game froze up to the point of having to delete the app and re-install. No recourse at all to rectify without blowing up a match. This is the third time it’s happened and I’m sick of it. I’m done with true backgammon for good.
I like it but…
The dice doesn’t always move the number shown on the dice. Right now the dice shows a 5 and 6. The dice will only move the 6 spaces, no matter the order I place the dice. This isn’t the first time it has happened. I’m aware of the the issue the developer has with all the complaints of the dice preprogrammed to attack all stand alone pips. My issue isn’t that, it’s all of the doubles rolled by the computer for itself and none for we players. If I had 3-4 doubles given to me every game, sure I’d win also. Your game is t the only one that does this, it seems to be insidious with the other backgammon games available. Just tired of suddenly the computer gets the doubles and we are left in the dust, so to speak.
Why the changes
I play your backgammon daily and this last change is stupid and I don’t like it, so many more touches, no auto bearing off, no switching dice sequence for the move… I still can’t win but that’s my fault. Why did you make these changes? Did you think it made a more real backgammon experience. I’m old and change sometime is hard but come on!! If you make changes to whats been out there for a very long time then at least give me the ability to turn them on or off so I can’t continue playing as always.
Great potential but dissappointjng
I’ve been looking for a good backgammon game that is challenging but accurate and fair. I have found that this game makes really novice moves on the advanced setting. Frustrating. And then it will go on spurts of double 4’s and double 5’s. Like literally 4 or 5 times in a row. Something is seriously wrong with the dice rolling. Sometimes it favors me and sometimes the computer, but still it tells me that I’m not getting good mix of dice rolls. I was expecting much better from a game I had to pay for. I’ll be deleting the game.
Great fun
Totally enjoyable reminds me of playing back to YMCA as a child
Thumbs down
To the developer: Why is it that 100% (yes, 100%) of the time, the AI has two or more players in your home region and is fairly blocked, gets double 5’s or 6’s and out they go into their home region. This never fails to happen and it’s extremely frustrating. I could understand once in a while, but every single time??? And you call this random??

* The MENU button now toggles to UNDO when a checker is moved. * In rare cases the high-low move mode used the wrong of both dice. * In rare cases the initial dice roll was done twice. * Some bugs in doubling cube tutor dialog fixed If you like this app and want to support further development, please rate it 5 star, or even better, write a nice review. I appreciate your support.
