Hi Product Hunt! 👋 I built Boardgammon because online backgammon often asks players to trust an invisible dice generator and gives them little help understanding what happened after a match. I wanted a table that felt as warm and social as the real game, while making fairness and learning first-class features. Every online roll uses a cryptographic commit–reveal process and can be verified after the match. The server validates every move, and the review shows performance rating, equity loss, cube errors, luck, and stronger alternatives. Players can also practice against four AI levels, follow lessons and puzzles, invite friends, use optional in-match voice chat, and explore heritage-inspired boards and regional variants. Boardgammon is free and available in the browser, on iPhone, and on Android. It also includes English checkers and supports 11 interface languages. I’d love your feedback—especially on the first-match experience, the fair-dice audit, and the post-game review. What would make you come back for a second game?
