Awesome BG aid n PvP game! Strong AI – Backgammon NJ HD Review

Get real. No cheating here. Move along. Nothing to see. If concerned, roll real dice for a while already. Excellent, mostly-intuitive user interface. Unobtrusive hints option. Really smooth play without distractions. Very responsive support by email. NJ is my favorite iPhone BG app, and I've tried a dozen of them. Only "XG Mobile Backgammon" seems to have stronger AI. Turn-based PvP network play is there and works, but use of GameCenter is awkward. Since most users don’t use this, developer isn’t doing much to improve PvP. DailyGammon on web has been better option for me. Cheating accusations against strong backgammon programs are widespread. See also (www dot aifactory dot co dot uk/backgammon dot htm) for discussion of the issue. Author works hard to explain how you can test for cheating, yet none of the whiners take the time to try them. Just based on their (claimed) superior skill and experience, it "feels" wrong. Yes, some rolls are surprising and seem to favor the machine. Others not so much, but that doesn't prove cheating.
