Largely a scam. They say you play for free, which isn't true. Then I lost 200,000 gold coins on ONE 1-point match. I asked why several times and got no answer. As soon as I run out this time, I will never pay their extortion again.

I’ve been a Star Member for months
I’ve been a Star Member for months, grinding through over 4,000 games, but Backgammon Galaxy is a total scam disguised as fair play. The dice rolls are blatantly biased—opponents get impossible streaks of doubles while I get garbage, especially in high-stakes matches against other Star users. Reviews everywhere echo this, but the devs deny it with “open-source RNG” excuses. Worse, they quietly removed the Luck Rating stats that used to prove (or disprove) fairness—now it’s just gone, leaving us in the dark.
Canceling the subscription? A nightmare. No button in the app, hidden on the web, and if you miss it, you’re stuck paying. Support is slow, and the whole thing feels designed to trap you. Free play is okay, but premium is a rip-off—stick to real boards or other apps. 1 star, uninstalling now.

1) You can't decline the amount of coin…
1) You can't decline the amount of coin your opponent want to gambling with. So, you can lost all your coins very fast even if you are a top class player.
2) You can't chose yourself who you want to play with.
3) Dice sometimes goes insane... especially against those 'fake payers' ( bot ? ) with impossible record.
Exaple. I have played someone with 7 games played 4 won 3 lost with a rating of 0973 ! So, if you lost ( and you will lost 100% of the time cause the dice are fixed in those games. )
