Defies All Odds – Backgammon Gold Review

A review from a high ranked player: At level 4, this is the most cheating Backgammon game there is. Don't ever let yourself get knocked out. Average rolls for the game to get back in: 1.5. Average rolls needed for you to get back in: 5.5. If the computer has only 2 or 3 points blocked, those are the rolls you'll get over and over again. If you have 5 points blocked, the computer will find the open spot in one or two rolls. In one game, the computer got exactly the only two-die roll needed to escape and hit so often, we calculated the odds at over 10,000 to one. We play this only to ridicule it. We would call out 6 and 4 almost every time that was the only roll that would win for the computer. Doubles when behind, immediately followed by multiple doubles.
