Ripping newcomers off – Backgammon - Lord of the Board Review
Unintelligent algorithm. Simply programmed to deliver a desired outcome. When it gets stuck, either the doubles start rolling or it won’t let the player get back on the board. Whether winning or losing, each game has an unmistakable resemblance to the one before and the one after. The purpose is to lure newcomers to buy as early as possible before they come to reach the same conclusion as everyone else eventually does. It’s all about ripping the newcomers off. All in all, if I had to pick one word to describe it, it would be “boring”.
