What the Backgammon app can do

Everything the website does – just more convenient: you start backgammon with one tap from your home screen, in full screen and without the browser’s address bar.

Play the computer at three levels or two players on one device even without internet, for example on the train or on a plane. Online you play real opponents or invite friends with a link. Plus practice mode, the daily puzzle and your statistics.

Why no app store?

The app comes straight from our website: no app store account, no sign-up with us and no big download. It only takes a few megabytes and is always up to date, because updates arrive by themselves the next time you start it.

We do not track you: no tracking, no accounts. Your game, your settings and your statistics stay on your device.
