The game is not statistically accurate whatsoever. As you increase the difficulty the game simply increases the odds of it rolling the "perfect roll", not just playing smarter moves. I can reluctantly accept losing the starting roll 4 times out of five (wish I had that kind of consistent luck), but you can almost predict what the computer will roll based on where your open men are. If you plsy backgammon at all, you will be very disappointed at the AI. This could be an awesome game, but instead, the game is just extremely annoying and frustrating. Graphically, nice looking game though (the one star given) - could be a winner if the AI was fixed.
