Customer Reviews
Astraware is NOT for Backgammon
This is one of the worst apps I've seen, at any price. I bought it for Backgammon. The computer just makes random moves, without any particular strategy. It is no challenge whatsoever. I would be better off playing against my 5 year old. For example, if it rolled a 6-1 on it's opening roll, it would move from 13 into it's home board (6) instead of making its bar point would know. I wrote to Astraware about it, but got no response. Don't waste your money.
Lots of bugs
Wow--I've never wasted money on an app with this many bugs before. I highly recommend you pass on this one.
Works fine, way to easy.
I haven't encountered any bugs with this app, but I did find the AI to be way too easy to beat. Yes I had the difficulty at HARD on each game, but it made no difference.
