I like the uncluttered look and ability to select skill level for the app opponent-- It helps build my skills and strategy. BUT select skill level 3 for the opponent, the skill doesn't increase, the dice tools get biased; eg., when I get kicked, my next 5 or 6 turns are lost because my rolls are dbl 5 or ANYTHING but what I need to get back on board. When my opponent gets kicked, their next roll is not only EXACTLY what they need to get on, but also to kick me off in the same turn. Uninstalling

It's backgammon. First, when you beat the AI once, it does NOT happen again. When you're on the verge of gaining an edge, you start rolling back-to-back pairs, which becomes four of a kind; but anything in backgammon larger than an 8 (2×4 dice as DOUBLES) is a very limited move—strategically speaking, anyway. In summary, the game is good and the theme is classic, but there's WAY too many ads to focus, and, for anyone who cares, you CAN'T 'remove' them even if you DO want to. A solid 3/5 game.

Your numbers generator is a cheating SOB, especially after you double! You could be so far ahead of the computer, and once you double, it rolls as many doubles as it has to, to win! Not only that, if it is put on the bar, it rolls whatever it needs to get off in less than 2 rolls in 99% of the instances! If you get put on the bar, many times it disallows you the opportunity to get off, many times in 6-8 rolls!
