I haven't played backmmon in 25 years. I was excited to find it. Trying to teach myself how to play again. BUT it really sucks when you throw an ad in "every 2 moves" seriously! I never pay to remove ads from a game. This one I probably will because when I can understand you need the ads to pay to run your games. Every 2 moves is Excessive!!!

Fixed rolls and unescapables ads. This game used to be great but has turned bad lately. The ads are multi-leveled and impossible to escape from. Constantly opening browsers to install other apps. Also, the app has a habit of rolling perfect rolls continuously for the computer and only rolls that hurt you. Not all the time though, but once it decides to do that in a game it is relentless.

Hi, thank you for your feedback! Our game uses an RNG to ensure fairness. Advertising supports the app and future updates. Some ads may display a store page. To return to the game, tap the close (✕) button on the ad or use the back icon at the bottom. If an ad doesn't provide a way back, please screenshot and send it via the Help desk in settings.

The game is visually nice, that's about all. Constant unending ads make it unbearable and an incredible ad free price of $14.99 in unreal. I've spent a couple dollars here and there for ad free games as I understand their need for financial support but this is so greedy. The rolls rapidly become predictable especially depending on if the player or computer have won a few recently as the game become extremely easy to win or all but impossible. Don't waste your time or money.
