Become part of the daily growing community of people who play True Backgammon online on an iPad, iPhone, iPod, iMac or MacBook. There's always someone willing to play a match. And you don't just play with them, you can also talk to them via built-in voice chat.
BEAUTY IS IN THE EYE OF THE BEHOLDER - GAME BOARDS
We didn't just strive to make a good AI and fluid gameplay, we also made it our mission to make it look good. No, not just good... we wanted to make them look drop dead gorgeous good. We found a skilled designer and then tortured him with feedback until we were satisfied. The result are two boards (metal and wood) which look awesome, while providing little visual distraction to let you focus on your strategy. And for those who love a little distraction, we let the designer run wild with a selection of (optional) fancy boards, rich with decor and beautiful details. Which one is your favorite?
AAAND ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE BOARD, A MULTIPLE OLYMPIC CHAMPION AI - BEEE GEEEE BLITZ
From time to time there is an olympic tournament for backgammon programs. We convinced the maker of the three times winner BGBlitz to make his AI available to the users of True Backgammon. This AI is a world class opponent for those who only want to match up against the best. And it is a patient mentor. BGBlitz offers a tutor mode, that will point out moves that are less than optimal, and it will show better ones. It will also offer you statistics, and you can export your current match into the common sgf format to analyze it with other applications like XG2, BGBlitz or gnuBG.
WHAT ELSE CAN WE SAY?
Long story short, we put a lot of effort into this app, not just into the game play, but on every level. If you choose it, we are sure you will not be disappointed.

True Backgammon Pros
✓ PerfectThis is the best electronic version of backgammon I have come across. There are times that the software seems extraordinarily lucky. I’m not sure if that is built in or not. The randomness of dice throws seems to be in favour of the software. Maybe I’m a sore loser..Version: 5.06
✓ Fun to play, but...Been playing this game for years, but since disabling the doubling cube a few months ago, I win waaaaay more often against the BGBlitz-2 engine. I know the developer will have some technical explanation for why this is so, but I’m just saying you’ll find this game much more fun to play *without* using the doubling cube. Obviously, the BGBlitz engine uses this to its advantage. I’ve read everything this developer has written regarding proof of random dice throws, and I accept it as honest. However, perhaps it’s psychological, but this game just ‘feels’ rigged, and I guarantee you will never quit a game as often as this one...just sayin’. And I should add that I quit even when up 4-0 in a match to 5 playing against the BGBlitz-2 engine...that’s just how skewed it ‘feels’ sometimes. Only someone familiar with the opening scene in “Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead” could accept the “randomness” of these rolls..Version: 5.13
✓ True Backgammon Positive ReviewsTrue Backgammon Cons
✗ GoodBut too much home advantage. 3 - 4 spaces open in opponents home are but when been knocked over 7 throws only the same 3 numbers already occupied by opponent. Disappointing.Version: 5.01
✗ Statistically ImprobableIf you play this game long enough you will be left scratching your head. The computer gets way too many perfect rolls. In addition if you are trying to get a token back onto the board..... the computer has 2 positions blocked. Odds are 1 in 3 rolls should get you back in play. I have consistently rolled 5 plus times to get back in play. Consistently. The computer rarely has this issue. As a matter of fact it rarely goes to 3 attempts for the computer to renter a token when 5 of six spots are blocked. While my descriptions are not impossible...... it is completely improbable for their consistent occupancy..Version: 4.35
