Backgammon is believed to have started in Persia, eventually finding its way to Britain with the Roman conquest in the 1st century and was played by Emperor Claudius who even had his carriage equipped with a playing board! It became such a gambling mania that it was declared illegal under the Republic.
Playing on the history of the game, there are 6 visually pleasing, rich board designs; Egyptian, Roman, Medieval, Victorian, Modern and Classic.
We also offer, out of the box, two classic game variations: “Old English” and Nackgammon. “Old English” is the most popular game variation in England. Nackgammon is a more challenging variation designed to add more creativity and skill to the game.

Great
Great app
Backgammon
Super 11 of 10 possible
Beautiful game!
Classic BG with several beautiful boards. The app however has gotten a bit slow from the latest updates and for some reson I still see advertaising even togh I payed for the premium app.. thats why its four stars instead of five.
Love it
Haven't played backgammon the last 20 years or so. So glad I downloaded this to my phone. Playing constantly
Totalt värdelöst!
O M F G Vilket otroligt värdelöst BG. Och 22kr tar dom för det. Ladda ej ner!!!
Great game
Great game, could have a fasten option for dice and move speed
Dåligt singelspel. Bra multiplay.
Tyvärr så är inte randomfunktionen riktigt rättvis i singelspelet. Datorn lyckas alltid pricka in mina pjäser när de inte är skyddade. Jag vet att datorn kommer att klippa mina oskyddade pjäser när jag kommer i det läget. Själv är det sällan som det går. Dessutom får datorn oftare dubbeltärning. Oftast när jag får dubbel så sitter jag i ett sånt läge att det inte går i alla fall. Det händer så ofta så att det inte kan vara en slump.
Svårghetsnivån är alltså att tärningsslagen är till datorns fördel.
Däremot är multiplay jättebra, vilket är det roligaste att spela.
Annars ett jättesnyggt spel med ett användargränssnitt som är enkelt och lätt att förstå.
Ger 5 stjärnor för multiplay men bara 2 för singelplay. Blir en trea.
Tack för mig

not working
The turned-based games stopped working after the update. Crappy.
