Backgammon Classic Board Live Reviews

Questionable

Bosm**|••£

Definitely fixed dice rolls fo computer player. Ok for practicing but not fair to actually play games.

There is no way that the rolls are random. Computer always gets the perfect roll, and you can tell it’s coming because they always ask for double right before doubles or exactly the right roll to fill their move. It’s a shame because the UX is better than other games. Plays fast, but the bogus rolls ruin the fun.

Quick, aggressive play. A challenge and fun.

Game substitutes rigged dice for good ai

Have had a few games where the dice results are very unusual—including multiple doubles for the computer in a row.

Rigged dice

Cal Bear 92

I played this for a good while and it seemed fair. And then recently it started getting the luckiest rolls over and over and keeps making 6-point primes perfectly in each game. I went from having a good record to a bad one. Something either changed or it’s programmed in to start manipulating the dice after some amount of play... shame. Another backgammon game I’m going to delete.

Who are we kidding?

I’m not sure who wrote previous reviews, but I just finished three five game matches watching the app roll pretty much exactly what it needed when it needed. Graphics and play are well designed - but truly random no.

If you play the computer, it rolls in its own favor, A LOT.

Not so random rolls

Random rolls do not happen. I can predict with 100% accuracy what the roll will be. I have made it my own game to see how accurate I am on guessing the roll the computer will get. When I play as 2 players; only then is it truly random rolls. That needs to be fixed so a person does not have to pick 2 players to get a true random rolling game. Shame on you! This game is getting worse on cheating when playing against computer! Computer gets perfect rolls 100% of the time! Horrible!

Random rolls?

I know they claim random rolls, but I don’t buy it. Too many times the 5&1 comes up on the first roll. There are other rolling quirks as well. Suspicious.

This thing CHEATS big time!

I chose this game because I love backgammon, but all the other games cheat and I heard this one was better. It’s not. There’s absolutely no possible way that the dice rolls are random. If you can reliably predict what will happen next, you know it’s rigged. Why is it so much to ask to find a backgammon game with truly random dice rolls? What is the reason that they all have to cheat? It’s infuriating. Don’t bother with this game... it’s not fun and will only piss you off. I’ll keep looking for one that is an honest competitor.
