This is the WORST game on the internet. The games are fixed. Impossible odds. There is ABSOLUTELY NO WAY it is not fixed. Thieves.

This game definitely is rigged, its not relaxing. You can see who s is winner at the beginning. Double double, but big one.

i like the game, but the dice become biased over number of wins or seemingly time-away. Maybe if i bought something from the store, the game would behave differently.

Funny how opponent ALWAYS gets you on the bar at the right time. This game is ridiculous. Don't even waste your time installing this game.

I'm yet to believe that it's stratigy and skill. I wonder how on the first roll to determine who starts, never ever has an equal dice. My advice is, don't take it seriously, play the system, not your opponent.

I am now convinced that this game is rigged. 5 games in a row. Impossible rolls happened game after game. last minute hit to turn the game around and multiple doubles at the end to decided an already decided game.

Awesome game design and execution, well coded. As of late I have noticed some bugs introduced in new versions of the game, still pretty good. Changed my rating to 4 stars.

Backgammon is a fun game only when the dice is random. But the dice on this game is anything but random!! This game installed crypto mining in the background and without my permission. Draining my battery. Also, the dice is 100% controlled by them, so they decide who wins. Designed for kids. Not a real game. The dice is not random at all. It has two modes only: either it gives you all doubles and whatever you need to win or the exact opposite so you will lose no matter how good you play.

Horrible die rolls. They say it computer generated, but everyone's complaining about the die rolls. Please listen programmers. Every time I play and have a 99/100% ratio to win my opponents magically start rolling doubles after double and i end up loosing. One thing you could fix too is where you tap to move each peice. You used to press anywhere on the peices spot. Now you have to touch the bottom only and its harder to play. Please fix the bad update you did

In-game, critical moment. Opponent can ONLY hurt me if they roll a 3. PAIR of 3's. They need a 4? Boom, two 4's. Need a 6? Boxcars! Has happened FREQUENTLY over the past 24+ months! If it's ME who needs a number to strike? Maybe 10% of the time, but get it as doubles... this has NEVER happened to me! Opponents' doubles of needed roll happens ALL THE TIME, sometimes TWICE/game. Too discouraging to play 2 opponents. Orodragon needs to revise algorithms. I'll find a fair app & report here later.

Where to start. Many times the opponent is a robot. The algorithm is skewed, and unrealistic. I also wonder if the algorithm is not set for certain members to win, from specific countries. The 6:1 ratio, 3:1, in the beginning is also not realistic. Then the doubles in a row too. Yeah a pretty crappy app.

I like the new screen but, the bonus pays less than before & it reaches levels a little bit faster. Getting better but, still favors Iranians, Iraqis, hackers & cheaters. Some beginners & players that don't know how to play sometimes get impossible combinations & rolls. Less players rolling impossible 11-13 dbls. Playing this game almost 6 yrs. I enjoy playing it but, still WAITING FOR FAIR GAME PLAY! Sometimes, impossible rolls & doubles, but It is still the best one I've played.

Could be a great app if if the dice weren't rigged. Love everything about it except for that. Typical scenarios; You are way ahead so you double...opponent takes the rediculous double only to maraculously roll double 6's...double 6's...double 5's...double 5's while I roll 2,1's and 3,1's. Or... You are off the board and you role multiple doubles, but they are the only numbers you can't use. Waaaaaay too many doubles in this app.Yes, it happens once in a while in real life but not all the time. It happens so often that it has become predictable.The higher rating you get the worse the roles become. Also I have kept tract of my opening role record. I now win it about 25% of the time. I once lost 16 opening roles in a row. At times, it takes the fun out of it. I use it for private games that you can create and play with friends. The crazy dice happen less for that, but do still get way too many doubles.

So sick of this frustration! The game has normal gameplay unless someone presses the doubling Cube anywhere past the middle of the game. It's a complete game over from there! So if you're losing, you totally luck out because if you quit they can't win with a Gammon or backgammon... But if they are losing, it totally changes the dice and you are 99% guaranteed to lose. I've been playing this game for over a year and it seems to get worse with every update. I just uninstalled.

I love/hate this game! Love: Good graphics, smooth game play, and easy to maneuver the pieces. Hate: Dice SEEM rigged. When only a certain roll will get you out, I can usually predict it to happen. This means the dice algorithm is based on the players stats and NOT random. When its so obvious that I can call it before the roll lands....it's rigged. I still play it. What can I say?

In the last two days I have had three different opponents run out or time and yet several seconds later they complete the move and game continues. I have completed moves multiple times, with time showing on the clock, even up to 30 seconds left and it tells me I lose. Have had that happen even with markers off the board and it gives the opponent a backgammon win taking extra coins from me when it shouldn't. Many other problems as well, but out of space to elaborate. Don't waste time, AND MONEY

Extremely frustrating because the dice rolls feel fixed. I think it has to do now with a player not going over a certain coin limit over x days. If you win too much in a day you will start losing horribly. When this happens if you leave a piece uncovered the opponent will always get the number needed to take your piece. Either from one dice, or from the sum of both dice. Every time. I've also had experiences with opponents getting as much as 5 doubles in a row. It's absolutely ridiculous.

I'm pretty sure that you are playing with bots at least some of the time. Of course they give you points to start off with, but if you run out, then you have to purchase more to keep playing. Once, when my peice was taken, my opponent only had the 2 and the 6 blocked. I rolled a 6-2 or double 6's FIVE TIMES in a row, which allowed him to get way ahead!

UPDATE: Sometime in the last year or so, they made a change where the option to double is frequently disabled, based on one player's total coin value. Prior to this change, I played the game for at least a year when doubling was allowed on every single match. This change has made the game MUCH LESS enjoyable because you often cannot double when you have the advantage, which gives your opponent the opportunity to get a lucky roll and take the lead.

Game is super rigged. Spent months with the game rolling everything in the opponents favor. Doubles doubles doubles. Or exactly what they need to take me out every damn time. All started after I spent $1 in the app during a special sale. Then it was fine for months and game play was fair, normal and competitive. Was happy to build my ratings and have fair games. But as soon as the special sales came back a million or two coins for $1 the game became rigged again as if to use up all my coins.
