About this game

★ Top Developer (awarded 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2015) ★
AI Factory's Backgammon is the best free Backgammon game on Android!

Backgammon is a game of skill and strategy; one of the world's classic parlour board games, played for recreation and gambling. Like Mahjong, Backgammon is played in social groups in coffee houses and bars. Historically, variants of this game are believed to have been played in Mesopotamia and Egypt thousands of years ago, then by the Romans and later in India. It also spread to East Asia, but was largely replaced by Xiangqi (Chinese chess). It is now very popular in the West.

It's good practice up until level 4. But on level 5 the bias toward the cpu player is profound. Despite the developers' protests, there is just no way the computer would get that many doubles, such better dice rolls, and an opportunistic timing in favor of the cpu that is just laughable. I mean the cheating is so over the top you can't miss it. I'm trying to use level 5 as practice against a rigged game, that's how bad it is.

We have really made it very easy indeed to prove our program does not cheat, as 100s of players have already done so. It uses an industry-standard LCR RNG. Many have said this is the strongest on Google Play, and they are right. See aifactory.co.uk/bg.htm. Get someone to help you run these easy and conclusive tests.

This backgammon game works smoothly, and looks nice. Good play! 2025 dice cheats again. It still gets off the bar with 1 or 2 dice rolls, and gives itself back to back doubles, while giving you the final double in the last roll, which is useless to you playing the game, but sure does skew their statistics in their favor. It's not consistent, but is too often to be random.

Thank you! (but it never cheated). Users now have easy tools that allow you to directly conclusively prove it does not cheat. Its 100% fair. See aifactory.co.uk/bg.htm. Many accusers ran the tests and now acknowledge fair play. Once users have run the tests it should also dawn on them that actually its unlikely that any backgammon programs cheat.

This is a great game. Different levels to try. No cheating, and the ads are brief and unobtrusive. Best of all, they're SILENT. No blaring interruptions, blasting everyone nearby. One suggestion; if you could cede a game instead of having to play it til the bitter end... sometimes that would be nice. EDIT; I didn't see the option n to cede the game 🤦🏻

Thanks for input. You can resign a round, but maybe resign game is needed.

What's new

From user requests, Cpu will now be able to double beyond the point that this does not impact win/loss.
