Game is 100% fixed with proof. An example is an opponent had me behind a six prime and kept knocking my single checker to the bar. Every time after I get knocked off I would need a one and I would get it 19 TIMES IN A ROW! It's IMPOSSIBLE!!!! There's only a 31% chance of rolling a one. This app is fixed. Do not spend money or use it as a real backgammon game. YOU GOT CAUGHT!

We're sorry to hear that you think the game is fixed. Please note that using RNG (random number generator) ensures that each dice roll is completely random and fair. All Backgammon Live players have the same chances to roll doubles, with no exceptions. We are certain that over a longer period, you would see both “lucky” & “unlucky” streaks.

The game looks great, but the dice are blatantly rigged to keep your coin total low. You’ll get absurdly unlucky rolls while your opponent gets exactly what they need—leading to frequent gammon or backgammon losses. Occasionally, you’ll get unreal winning streaks, but only to keep you hooked. It’s clearly designed to push you into buying more coins. Many players have said the same. If the dice were truly fair, this would be a great game. As it stands - 1/5 stars.

Whatever algorithm they are using for the dice rolls here are suspect at best, flat out manipulated at worst. Had 8 doubles come up against me across 3 opponents, after encountering maybe 2 in the previous 3 games suspiciously bringing my coin total so low that it pushed me towards the monetized options to continue. Like I said no hard evidence so possibly just coincidence, but even if it is so that just means the dice algorithm is so bad it's not worth playing.

Hi, Sorry to hear about your negative experience with the game, however, we can assure you that dice rolls in Backgammon Live are determined with a Random Number Generator (RNG) which means that each dice roll is random. We have no control over it or winning in the game. Kind regards, BGL team
