Backgammon Elite: Tavla Nardy

Backgammon Elite is classic backgammon in beautiful 3D: play online with friends, on the same Wi-Fi or against smart AI offline. Three games in one app (Backgammon, Long Nardy and Hypergammon), with the doubling cube, real match play, city tables and knockout cups.

★ CLASSIC BACKGAMMON, DONE RIGHT

• Full rules: hitting, the bar, bearing off, gammons and backgammons

• Tap a checker to see where it can go, tap again to move, undo any step before you finish your turn

• Pip counts, move hints and an optional Done button for careful players

• A real wooden case with dice you can almost feel: tilted 3D view or classic top-down board

★ DOUBLING CUBE AND MATCH PLAY

Play a single game or a match to 3, 5, 7 or 11 points with the doubling cube and the Crawford rule. Double, take or pass, and win gammons for double points, just like a club match or a long tavla evening.

★ LONG NARDY AND HYPERGAMMON

• Long Nardy (Narde): the favourite from Russia to the Caucasus. Both players run the same way, no hitting, one checker holds a point, and the head rule applies

• Hypergammon: three checkers each, fast and full of shots

Every game has its own computer player, trained by playing itself hundreds of thousands of times.

★ PLAY WITH FRIENDS ONLINE

★ SMART AI FROM EASY TO EXPERT

Learn on Easy, then take on Normal, Hard and Expert. The Expert looks ahead, plays the cube well and punishes every blot. Play offline, no Wi-Fi needed, and continue an unfinished game later.
