Backgammon, also known as Tavla, is a two players board game that involves a combination of strategy and luck, due to rolling dice. The goal is to remove all of one’s own playing pieces from the board before the opponent can do the same. While the dice can determine the outcome of a single game, strategy is what separates the good and the better players over a series of games.

_________________
FAQ:

Why did you change the game?
The former version was no longer compatible with iOS 11 (it wouldn't start or crash in most cases). The code base of the former version was too old to just be updated which is why we needed to rebuild the game from scratch. We used this opportunity to also implement a multiplayer mode and update the graphics.

How can I play the former / old version of Backgammon?
You can only play the old version if you don't update the game and use a device that uses iOS 10.3.3 or lower.

Where is the "Undo" button?
After your first move, there will be a circular arrow pointing to the left, at the bottom right of the board. Tapping the arrow will undo your move.

Enjoyable

The only two complaints I have are that the opponent seems to win the opening roll way too much. The other complaint is that when I'm playing, I will suddenly be knocked out of the game and some weird page tries to load so I have to keep hitting my home button to take me out and back to the game. It's enough of a glitch it makes me want to go to another app. Please fix it. I'm on an iPhone. If it's supposed to be an advertising interruption, you need to make it so player doesn't get bounced out of the game!

No fair dice

90 percent of the games my opponent starts first. Game locks up and you lose. Moves are predictable! Their algorithm is messed up! 4 double 6s in a row? I astound my friends by predicting the next roll. Not worth my time.

Developer Response ,

Hi Douglas, the ai who rolls the dice is absolute neutral. But of course, also like in real life, from time to time everyone has bad luck. This happens also if i play games. Hope you understand. Greetings, Alex from LITE Games Team.

AI is lucky and stupid

I tried a few of the backgammon games out, and at first this one seemed to be pretty good. But, it soon became apparent that the AI gets the doubles and the only roll that can save it and send me to the bar. I have played lots of very lucky people, so this doesn't bother me as much as the AI making stupid moves. In expert or easy level the computer only tries to get as many pieces to the one space-even if it could take bear off a piece. IE... It has men in the "6", "5" & "4" positions and rolls a "5" & "4". It moves from the "6" & "5" position to the "2" & "1" position instead of off the board. On my last game before I deleted the app- it's one of many stupid moves was to not take my back man and place it on the bar when it had all but one space for my coming in blocked. I already had half my men off the board- it could not win a running game.

On the good side- it looks pretty.
