Electronic money

In some games, the "winner" is the person with the most game
pieces left on the board. In backgammon, however, your goal is
to be the first player with no pieces on the board.

In its original form, backgammon is a board game played by two
people. In electronic backgammon, one person can play against
computer software. The added benefit of playing electronic
backgammon is that you can incorporate extra levels of
excitement. Playing against the computer, you can choose an easy
game, or play on a more challenging "difficult" level.

The nice thing about electronic backgammon is that you can play
it anywhere. It's fun to play in the car or on the bus, at
school or at home. There are no loose pieces to drop and
misplace, and everything you need is always there when you're
ready to play.

You can play electronic backgammon anytime you want, without
searching for a partner to give you a challenging game.

There are a lot of basic similarities between electronic
backgammon and the classic board game. Game play, rules and
strategies remain the same. However there are some benefits with
electronic backgammon that the original version just can't
offer. With electronic backgammon, you can start a new game
whenever you want, and turn the game off any time you need to.
You can save a game to finish later on. There are also a few
rule variations with the electronic game. You can decline,
accept and even take back a move. You can ask the computer for a
hint, double a move and choose the difficulty level you want to
play at. Electronic backgammon allows you to make multiple moves
at one time, something that your real-life partner would never
agree to. Some electronic software allows you to verify whether
a move is playable. These benefits make electronic backgammon a
great way for new players to learn the strategies and rules of
the game.

Backgammon has been enjoyed by generations, and electronic
versions have introduced backgammon to a new generation of
gamers. Onscreen, backgammon looks a lot like other favorite
games; with pieces that look like checkers, stones or coloured
dots. You will see dice that are used to generate random moves,
and to help you when you just don't know what move to make.

If you have never played a game of backgammon, the electronic
version is a great place to start. With easy beginner mode
you'll learn the rules quickly, and the software will offer
hints when you need them. Try electronic backgammon, the
classic board game, or search for fun multiplayer backgammon
games online. Fun to play, good for your brain, backgammon is a
real winner.
