The highest-rated player at month's end receives a handcrafted backgammon board, shipped to their door. Then the table resets.
Backgammon is a race for two players across a board of twenty-four points. You roll two dice, move your fifteen checkers toward your home board, and bear them off — the first to clear the board wins. The computer here plays a steady game, ideal for learning the rhythm.
If you'd like the full rules before you sit down, our guide walks through the setup, the moves, and the doubling cube in a few minutes.
