Master Backgammon is a tactical board game where you compete against an intelligent opponent, rolling dice and maneuvering your pieces to win.
The key rule: roll the dice and move your 15 checkers accordingly, bringing them to the home area and removing them before your opponent does.
Be careful: if an opponent lands on a point with just one of your checkers, they can «hit» it and send it back to the starting position. One wrong move, and you have to start over.
Your objective: bring all 15 of your checkers home before your adversary does, using strategic thinking and dice rolls to outwit the AI.
Controls are straightforward: click the dice to roll, choose a checker, then click the spot where you want to move it. Simple and quick.
As you progress, the challenge grows: initial games help you learn the rules, but soon the AI becomes more skilled and less predictable.
If you get stuck, remember: block your opponent's routes, safeguard your checkers and avoid reckless moves.
How to play
Begin a fresh game, pick your skill level, and gear up for the challenge.
Press the button to roll the dice — each one will display the number of points you can move your checker.
Tap on a checker and slide it the number of spaces that match the dice roll. If you get a six, move that checker six points.
Objective: maneuver all 15 checkers into your home zone (the final six points on the board), then take them out of play.
Initial strategy: first, shift a few checkers from their starting spots, then move the others.
How to play: click the dice to roll them, tap a checker to pick it, and touch where you want to move it.
On a mobile device: use your finger for the same controls. The interface is tailored for touchscreens.
Be careful: if an opponent lands on a lone checker, they can knock it back to the start. Steer clear of isolated positions!
Conquer your rival and open up new levels!
