Don’t Waste Your Time

The layout of this game is great, and the pieces are easy to see and move with 1 or 2 clicks unlike other versions. That said, this game is rigged in favor of the computer, especially on the “Hard” difficulty level. On the easy and medium levels, the game is so easy that it’s a joke. At first I thought it was all in my head, but when I read the other reviews it seems that many of us agree that the computer has extraordinary luck. The computer rolls a ton of doubles, especially at the end of the game, while the player gets 1s and 2s. I wish this game actually simulated backgammon, because it is great functionally and aesthetically, but it is incredibly frustrating to play a computer that (for lack of a better word) cheats.
