Backgammon Deluxe Go

I have not experienced a single glitch that anyone has mentioned before me. So that really surprises me. My only issue is it isn't challenging enough as I beat the computer 99% of the time. There are times I'm surprised at the moves the computer makes as many are passive & wasted moves as every move should be all about being offensive & defensive & always thinking ahead. This is a free game & is refreshing because of the lack of problems & unwanted pop ups. There are 'free games' out there that are so messed up u couldn't pay me to play them because the stress isn't worth it. So thank you for an all around good free game.

I love how the rolls are actually random and not always exactly what the cpu 'needs'. But...I hate the decorative dice at the bottom and the rolled dice on the board, it throws me. And after finishing a game and closing app, when I return, the app is stuck at the end of the previous game wanting me to take the unused move even though I've already beared off all pips. Have to actually quit the game and start new. I haven't had the app like long enough to see stats if there are any so I don't know if it affects them. I don't play for stats I just enjoy the game. I'll keep the app, but am hoping for improvements.

I win 95% of the time but that's not the point. Your offense is bad in my opinion but your piggish amount of doubles is truly incredible. As my friends watch me play, I'm the queen of double ones and 6-3 to open. As I can predict your rolls, if I have a lone man out, you inevitably give yourself the exact rolls to hit and cover. You always have anywhere from 4-8 men in MY house! Don't like paying rent? Don't want to go home? Truly amazing the only point open was my three, I had up to three of you on the wall many times and yet you would get doubles threes each and every time! Wonder what odds of that would be. But it's your game, I guess I should feel privileged for letting me play! Gee thanks, I am truly humbled by your brilliance!

The offered backgammon games for iPad are AWFUL... Almost every game is programmed to be in favor of the cpu instead of moves being random. This game seems to be a rare offering where the cup moves are random. At the same time, the cpu doesn't take advantage of moves against the player when it could, at least in the medium difficulty setting. Still, at least you don't have the frustration of skillfully playing to advantage only to have the cpu make a series of moves that are statistically impossible. So I'll give this offering a good score, but not perfect.

1st review I've ever posted. But, when the dice continually favor the cpu past level 2.....it warrants a post. How does the developer expect anyone to keep or continue to play in level 3 and beyond when the rolls are no longer random ? I was very pleased with the app in levels 1 & 2 because it was truly random. Some of the cpu moves in those levels were frustrating (as previously mentioned). If you are looking to learn or are at a beginner level this is a decent app for you. If you want challenging random play in intermediate to advanced play, keep looking, this app won't make you happy.
