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.

## Backgammon HD Reviews in United States

### ****- "Fun to play against the game! I’m addicted!"
I love Backgammon, and I love being able to play without another human.

The part I don’t like is how the computer opponent seems to roll doubles ALL of the time, in just the right critical moments. And me, UNLUCKY and rarely roll a double.
-- KriSvenskaFlika, 2026-10-21

### ***** "So much fun"
This game is so much fun. I love that you can play with the computer or friends.
-- beast0987654321, 2026-10-03

### ***** "Love the he"
Love the fact when playing with the computer they don’t get double after double so far
-- SjA 1966, 2026-09-15

### ***** "Excellent Game"
This is a fun game with different modes.
-- rabeason, 2026-09-11

### ***-- "ljm48"
I went to this game because a different one was so unfair of the computer's dice rolls.  At first, I thought this was better, but after playing for a short while, I see that it is not.  In one of my typical games, the computer will get 3 or 4 sets of good doubles, while I usually might not get any.  It does not seem to be random.  If I get doubles, it's often 1's, where the computer gets great numbers.  Several times when I've almost won, I've seen the computer get back-to-back great doubles, for the win.  A regular person is not likely to get the perfect numbers they need as often as the computer does.  And all of this is at Easy.  I've tried Med, but it was unfair, and much worse.  It appears to be a very well written game and if the dice rolls were fair and truly random, I would give 5 stars...
-- ljm48, 2026-09-08

### *---- "If only the dice were random…"
This game is loaded with features far above what the other backgammon games I’ve checked out offer. Great aesthetics, yellow highlighting of potential moves, a simple undo feature, and lots more.

Ordinarily, I’d easily give it five stars. But cannot, for one reason. It has a major flaw that makes it unacceptable (to me) for true practice against the computer:

The dice are non-random. 

This is not necessarily malicious. I suspect the dice are enhanced just to make the game more exciting. That’s not uncommon among game apps.

Evidence? There are just too many ‘coincidental’ rolls, like, where only one out of 36 would benefit the roller, and it hits. Happens too often—way too often (for both computer and human player) for random dice.

And too many doubles, especially on the last play of the game. 

My pet peeve: when playing the computer, its blot on the bar gets in first roll (my estimate) about 70-80% of the time. Even with five slots filled.

Note to developers: consider building in an option to select 1) true random dice, or 2) the current ‘exciting play’ (non-random) setting. 

That way, those of us wanting to practice can do so without enhanced dice, if we choose.

I still play this game a lot, but often while gritting my teeth. Why stick with it? Because I can’t find other Backgammon apps with as many features with random dice.

(Note: I’ve never tried playing against live players, so that play may be different.)
-- Senior Weather Guy, 2026-08-28

### ***** "Almost as good as in personi"
I don’t play any of my other iPad games anymore. I just wish there were people close by that would enjoy a visit which included Backgammon and/or Foosball.
-- The Ubiquitous Claw, 2026-08-28

### ***** "Best choice"
Love everything about it
-- Kathy Mac !, 2026-08-18

### *---- "So problematic after three years without updates"
I like the feel of this, the look, and the play. Always have. But on an iPad mini 6 the ratios are off and the pieces don’t line up right on the board anymore.  The level score doesn’t work right anymore, either.  I might be at 2600 at the end of the night, and the next morning I’ll see that I’m back to some lower number because it forgot what I earned the night before.  And it’s always an issue since I have this on the phone and an iPad to keep those points correct even though they share the same game center account. Find something that is actively being kept current because this one is just a nightmare now.
-- JDThird, 2026-08-07

### ***** "Good game"
Good game however it appears that it favors the AI WHEN YOUR FAR AHEAD. (Ex. AI gets lotsa doubles)
