Software Reviews and Criticism

  Bait and Switch

  I downloaded and installed, only to find out it’s not free… after playing for a little bit the game quit and then they ask for Money to keep playing. They should be clear in the listing of this game that it’s not free and that there is a time bomb in it that will limit your ability to play anymore without paying.

  Computer player too easy to defeat

  I haven’t lost to the computer once. I don’t belive I’m a master backgammon player so this seems quite worrisome to me. There isn’t a way to either skip or speed up the die roll animation. I understand that the development team may have spent considerable time with the animation and they are proud of it, but most of the time I just want to see the results of the roll. There are also some strange bugs. Sometimes the last pip and the channel get confused which allows the clearing of stones when it’s not eligible. The board will sometimes randomly rotate several degrees.

  Breaks Basic Game Rules - Bears off with pieces not in home

  Not only does the game immediately require $4.99 purchase, but I found in my first game that the creator didn’t even implement it to follow the basic rules. I hit a piece after it started bearing off and it continued to bear off even though its piece was not back to its home area. If you are going to charge, you should at least implement a game that follows the rules. I feel ripped off.

  Not Free

  I installed the free application got through 3 rolls before it wants you to pay. Im not oppsed to paying for apps but it would be nice if you could acctually play it before you are axked for money.

  Waste of time

  Forces you to pay for the game before you finish playing one game. Cheap trick
