I bought this to play Acey Duecy with my husband and it works just fine. We seldom travel without our board but it's not always convenient to carry about. This has the advantage of no tokens or dice falling off the board. It appears to follow rules we are familiar with from the U.S. Navy, however, it does not recognize an automatic loss if you roll three Acey Duecys in a row. It would also be nice if the app kept track of win-loss stats for individuals.

Do not pay for this. Even at easiest level it can't be beat. There is no difference between easiest and hardest.

Those without a willing playmate can find hours of entertainment. Game is set up to play Onesy-Twozy, a great variation on the game. A good way to practice facing a human opponent.

Dice rolling favors computer at all levels. Computer rolls doubles far to often to be random & far more often than human. DO NOT BUY!

I'm super bummed as for the most part this looks like it would be amazing and unlike most digital backgammon apps this is one of two that play acey ducey. Sadly though after paying $5 I am not able to play acey ducey as anytime I roll a 1-2 the game gets caught in an infinite doubles loop. ? I hope this gets fixed as the game board is lovely otherwise. UPDATE: they seem to have fixed the loop, however it's incredibly hard to play against the computer as it tends to get the best roles, 2 aces duceys in a row, multiple high number rolls and always gets the exact number needed when you have an alone chip. Doesn't matter what level you choose, beginner or expert. If they can fix that it would be great.

This game is awful. Don't waste your time. It doesn't even keep the correct statistics. It gets every roll it needs every time.

I love the game acey ducey. But the computer cheats so bad. If this was a ole skool roll of the dice ok, but the computer controls the game. If I couldn't play I wouldn't leave a comment. But this is ridiculous. I keep playing just to see how it will cheat on the next game. What can u do? Lhh

This game is not working. I paid good money and it breaks down constantly. The voice used by the computer sounds like an a psycho-killer. This is very annoying!!

Finding a backgammon game with the proper rules for acey deucey has been impossible. I'm sure different people may have some different rules but those should be options. I thought paying $5 to get a game would help. Unfortunately it is almost a complete waste of money.

Despite a few occasional bugs, the backgammon logic and play is far superior to any other I've found
