For user convenience, during the game, the movements of the checkers and dice rolls are recorded. These records allow for better analysis of the moves made, which is especially important for learning. There is already an established format for recording moves within the community.
Here’s an example:
4-2: 8/4, 6/4
The player rolled dice 4-2, moved a checker from position 8 to 4, and a checker from position 6 to 4.
1-1: bar/23, 4/3*(2)
The player rolled dice 1-1 (double), made the first move from the bar to position 23 (using dice 1 and 1), moved a checker from position 4 to 3 (hitting the opponent’s checker), and repeated the move.
How to enable the move journal?
The move log is not displayed by default. To enable it, you need to open the settings panel during the game (green button on the right). In the settings panel, enable the “Field Numbering” option (mandatory), and then “Move Log”. The move log will be displayed where the player avatars were previously located.
We’re thrilled to roll out our latest update, which introduces a new leveling system to the game. Now, every active player can earn chests filled with content. All you need to do is play.
But what exactly are levels? In Backgammon Masters, levels indicate player’s experience. They allow you to gauge a player’s time spent in the game, which doesn’t necessarily reflect their skill level. The more experienced the player, the higher their level. Importantly, this metric doesn’t affect gameplay or rankings in leaderboards. Every player starts at level one.
As you play matches and complete tasks, you’ll gain experience, represented in-game by colorful stars. To advance to the next level, players need to accumulate stars. You can track your progress towards your next level in the profile menu.
The more you play, the faster you’ll gain experience. And with each new level reached, you’re rewarded with a chest containing exciting game content.
However, there are also a few limitations to note. For instance, new players will temporarily lose access to the general chat, tournaments, and competitions. This is designed to allow newcomers to gradually learn the game without distractions.
This system is being introduced into the game in phases, and in the near future, we plan to implement “Daily Quests.” Depending on your current level, you will receive personalized tasks each day that must be completed within that day.
We are thrilled to unveil a significant update for all players. Introducing the bonus wheel feature, where you have the chance to win gold and treasure chests. Earn special tokens in tournaments and rapid games to increase your stakes for the wheel; you can place bets on all four color fields. Please note, the number of spins is limited. Get one daily free spin if you participate in tournaments or quick games. Additionally, secure extra spins by placing bets on red.
We hope you will appreciate this enhancement! Stay tuned for the upcoming, much-anticipated level system. Best of luck!
Change Log:
Earn tokens in tournaments and quick games, irrespective of the game outcome;
Locate the new bonus wheel button in the main menu;

We are thrilled to announce that you can now enhance your chats with animated emotions. Just click on the “smile” emoji in the input line to access them. You can use the emotions you’ve already discovered, or unlock new ones by opening chests in competitions. These chests will soon be available in other areas of the game, so make sure to keep your app updated for the best chat experience.
Great news! Update 1.7.100 is available for download on all platforms. The news board has been redesigned to offer a more convenient and immersive experience, with full-screen display of the latest updates and notifications. Simply click on the envelope icon to access it. According to our traditions we’ve also set up Christmas tree to bring some cheer during the new year season. We hope you enjoy these enhancements and continue to stay informed with the latest news. 🎄
We are truly happy to announce that Backgammon Masters has officially turned 11. Way back in 2011 we released the first version of this mobile game on the first generation of iPhone. And now, many years down the line, we are still continually improving thanks to your encouragement and support. From the bottom of our hearts—THANK YOU!
To mark this event, we will be hosting a promotion in the game shop for the next two weeks. You just have to launch the game, tap on the lamp, and you will receive a gift dedicated to the 11th anniversary of Backgammon Masters. Don’t delay, the gift is waiting for you!
