Backgammon is a game of skill and strategy; one of the world's classic parlour board games, played for recreation and gambling.

Historically, variants of this game are believed to have originated in Egypt over 3000 years ago, from where it was adopted by the Romans and then later travelled to India. It also spread to East Asia, but was largely replaced by Xiangqi (Chinese chess). It is now very popular in the West.

Minor fixes - Version 2.341 posted on 2020-10-28
The app no longer requests Storage permission for stats backup, so therefore stats no longer automatically backup. Instead there are now import and export stats options on the stats screen. Most users were not accepting the storage permission, and this new method of importing/exporting stats can be used without that permission. - Version 2.32 posted on 2019-12-30
