Description

Backgamon (sic) is a computer version of the board game backgammon. Players roll dice to move men over the game board with the aim of being the first to move all fifteen off of the board. The typical rules of Backgammon apply. Players roll two dice (if a pair is rolled it becomes four for that turn with the extra two being a copy of the original pair) to move their pieces to an empty slot, a slot occupied by their own pieces, or a slot that contains only one of their opponent's pieces. Doing that will send their opponent's piece back to their own home base. The game can be played against the computer or against another player.
