Backgammon
Backgammon
Among the oldest games ever devised is backgammon, whose roots go all the way back to ancient Mesopotamia. The object of the game is to progressively move all of your pieces off the board or ‘bear off’. You do this by rolling dice and selecting pieces. Success here relies on a perfect balance of luck and skill, which is part of what’s made the game so enduringly popular, even thousands of years later. Of course, the ancient Mesopotamians didn’t have the luxury of digital technology to make their backgammon experience more convenient. Here, you’ll be able to enjoy the game without the hassle of setting up a board, or finding someone to play against. Play backgammon now on GamePix!
