iGammon

(7 yrs ago I gave one star and wrote: Before the update the game had a lot of errors and shut downs but at least you could win once in a while if you tried but now the dices are rigged even more! Was my favourite but will ban it from iPhone like this! People have payed for this game in the passed and the update should provide improvement, not degrading!)
4 stars now!
Regarding the new swift update 31st July '17:
Wow, I reinstalled the game again a while back and was looking forward to this new 'promising' update. Still a few options missing like horizontal game play, starting over completely new, percentages to take or leave a bet. Loved the original layout more cause it had a more real-like old-fashioned feel to it but that's just semantics. Don't like the arrows showing the computers move much but I guess that's what makes it easier for others. Dices are still rigged when playing against computer but I found a way years ago to win some games anyway with the right moves ;-) so it's a bit of a challenge to keep trying. Only one time I made it too 21-0 so it's really not that impossibly to win. Hope the next improvement won't take another 7 yrs! I got warned too many times this game wouldn't be supported anymore with the next iOS version so glad you got it working in time! Thanks for that!
People who keep complaining about the dices; just remove or keep trying and see if you can find the loophole cause it really is there.. I guess it takes a bit more patients to take on an old fashioned game that doesn't have 'instant' gratification like most of the others do.. that's only a fake boost of confidence if you ask me! :P

I don't like the graphics and animations. Missing some options... not good at all...

Hoewel het spel er goed uit ziet ben ik net als veel anderen van mening dat er niet 'at random' gedobbeld wordt door de computer. Als ik statistieken bij zou houden dan zou blijken dat de computer vaker dubbel gooit dan ik, en los daarvan vaker handige worpen gooit dan ik. Soms als ik vast sta en alleen met een 3 los kom gooi ik ineens achter elkaar dubbel 4, dubbel 5, dubbel 6..net als je er niks aan hebt.
Het spel heeft ook de optie om met twee 'humans' te spelen, wellicht liggen de kansen dan anders..

zelfde conclusie als iereen in de recenties. De dobbelstenen vallen wel heel vaak in het voordeel van de computer.

The dices are def NOT random its unbelievable the way the computer rolls! Nice option to play against another human. Very irritating that the screens flips upside down when you are playing against the 'other side'. Tutor is nice but when you listen to that the computer seems to make itself easier to beat you. It always puts the stones in a way that he can hit you ... Never the less very nice done hope they can make an update to have a fair game ...

Ik ben een redelijk goede speler met ervaring. Echter het is opvallend dat tegen de computer spelen lastig te winnen is, zodra de computer de inzet heeft verdubbeld. Het begint dan opvallend veel mooie dubbels te gooien. Ook als ik statistisch mooi gepositioneerd ben en hij heeft net de inzet verdubbeld, dan slaagt er toch in mij te slaan, ondanks de kans van 1:36. Dat doe hij regelmatig. Ik heb dit spel al vaak uitgeprobeerd. Als je niet verdubbelt dan is het fifty fifty. Zodra het om meer punten gaat, vergeet dan maar. Dan gooit hij de meest onwaarschijnlijke worpen. En zelf krijg je de meest verschrikkelijk ogen.
Jammer want grafisch is het een goed spel.
Ik heb op de Amerikaanse store de recensies gelezen. Allemaal zeggen ze dat dit spel verre van "random" is. Dobbelstenen worden 100% gemanipuleerd.
Als je een ervaren speler bent dan daag ik je uit om dit spel uit te proberen, wel met de verdubbelaar.

Before the update the game had a lot of errors and shut downs but at least you could win once in a while if you tried but now the dices are rigged even more! Was my favourite but will ban it from iPhone like this! People have payed for this game in the passed and the update should provide improvement, not degrading!

The dices are rigged! This is how the AI is apparently an " expert". The AI is the same, but the dices get more and more in favor of the AI as you advance in level. It's an illusion, but a simpler and cheaper way to make a good "AI"

I can play well backgammon. Igammon is not playing fair. This is the only conclusion. Dices are not that random. 80% of the time iPhone begin playing. Also number of games is missing. Backgammon is always 3,5 or 7 games

No true dice, it wins through a frustrating way making sure the dices are in favour of the AI... so dumped it of my iPhone.
