Three modes of play exist: play against your friends, against the computer, or in time-limited real-time multiplayer matches. The intuitive design and interaction in this game are perfect for either casual or competitive fun.
How to Play
In backgammon, two players play on a board that has 24 triangular points ("pits") arranged in three rows. Every player has 15 checkers starting out on the board, and the goal is to be the first to move all of his checkers off of the board. A quick game instructions look like this:
- Setup: Each player starts with 15 checkers placed across their home board.
- Objective: Move your checkers to your home board and then bear them off.
- Rolling dice: Each player alternates rolling two dice to determine how many points their checkers will move.
- Moving checkers: Checkers move in a clockwise direction, as stated on the dice.
- Hitting and bearing off: If a checker lands on a point with one opponent checker ("blot"), the opponent's checker is hit and placed in the middle of the board; you may then bear off your checkers once all your checkers are in your home board.
- Winning: The first to bear off all his checkers wins.
Tips & Tricks
- Control the Center: Try to control the middle points (points 5 to 8) as there are many movement options possibly offered here.
- Avoid Blots: Keep your checkers grouped to lessen the chance of being hit.
- Bear Off Wisely: Stay off until you are sure that you can bear off without interruptions, since if you bear off prematurely, you get exposed.
- Notice Your Opponent: Analyze the movements made by your opponents and plan yours accordingly.
