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.

The game ALWAYS lands on any unprotected stone. During bear off, the game throws doubles while I throw 1's and 2's. When you get knocked off, it usually takes many throws to get back on the board. The "random" throws, seem to repeat a pattern. These things happen naturally when playing a human opponent from time to time, but not every game. I do win occasionally at this AI game but it is very frustrating.

There is no pattern. The dice are very much random. You can easily prove the dice are fair by running the very comprehensive tests we provide. See aifactory.co.uk/bg.htm. Note all Backgammon programs are accused of cheating, but it is extremely unlikely any do

Too bad you can't connect and play online with others. Good graphics, nice action. 2024 update: level 8 makes me laugh out loud, because the AI almost always rolls exactly what it needs, exactly when it needs it. 40% win ratio is about all I can accomplish at level 8. AI almost always rolls several doubles when bearing off, to accomplish the win. Playing a more challenging level should include facing more strategic moves, not more predetermined rolls.

The apparent high luck reflects a good statistical strategy, not cheating. Many users say this is the strongest backgammon on Google Play, and they are right. You can easily prove the dice are fair by running the comprehensive tests we provide. See aifactory.co.uk/bg.htm. Note all Backgammon programs are accused of cheating, but unlikely any do

It's a fun game, lately you've added a lvl 8 that is much more challenging and smarter and doesn't go too easy on a player for risky moves. But guys!! Please! Making it more challenging doesn't mean biased dice rolls in favor of cpu! I checked overall stats, and believe me I'm not exaggerating! Also, a suggestion. when proposing doubling in a match, isn't it better if it could still be an option for proposer to add a double to it again? It will help many of already decided games to end sooner

The dice are very much random. You can easily prove the dice are fair by running the very comprehensive tests we provide. See aifactory.co.uk/bg.htm. Note all Backgammon programs are accused of cheating, but almost certainly none do. On doubling it is against the rules to allow a player that doubled to double again, until the opponent doubles

What's new

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