Overview

Backgammon's back... with a bang! Beloved by millions, played for centuries, backgammon is a two-player strategy game quite unlike any other. The goal is simple: race to get your checkers off the board first, but the deceptively deep rules and rhythm of backgammon has secured it as a favorite among casual and veteran players alike.

Reception

It's Backgammon. If you like Backgammon, this could be for you. The music is what I'd consider "Angry Jazz," and I'm not really digging it. In any case this is a game that would fall in a neutral recommendation if something like that existed.

Dice fall, checkers race
Centuries bow to the board
First one home wins all

Dice are fixed and I frequently receive the following msg:-
"An unexpected error occurred in Backgammon Blitz. The error has been reported to VooFoo and we hope to have this resolved in an update".
To date, over the past year, I have received this message five times. Of course, the game also crashes!
