I would give it 5 stars, but the poor sportsmanship is so predominant and immature that it ruins the experience. Quite a few players use the "undo" to hit, unhit, hit again the same piece over and over just to be annoying, or they stall, or let the clock run out rather then resign. Then, if you disconnect to avoid this, you lose a backgammon. All these issues are remediable with a little programming insight. Or at least make it possible to block an opponent from playing you again. Uninstalled.

I have played this game a lot and there is no way it is a fair game, when it wants you to loose you do no matter how you play. In the last 10 games I have been over 20 pips ahead all my pieces in the home court and the other person gets 3 to 4 sets of doubles to win the game. Its possible once in awhile but not 5 out of 10 times. If I was behind in the same 10 games never hit doubles. Also if you knock somebody off and have one spot open they get out 80% of the time in 1 role. I have been knocked of with 4 open spaces and cant get out in 10 roles the other player ends up covering all their spaces and when you do get out you almost always get small roles and they get a gammon on you. Yes it happens but not all that often in real life. I can tell when its going to happen and 75% of the time I can tell you what the other player will role.

It's very slow where you have to signal where you want the pip to go. Why not use one finger orbthe highest move goes first automatically by a ress if a finger and then the lowest after that. Make it more challenging and rewarding. Change the graphics around. Interaction with other online players would be good. Friends list etc. Bonus coins. Make it fun to come to.
