About Short Backgammon

Short Backgammon delivers a fresh twist on the age-old board game, blending strategy and chance within a visually vibrant arena. Challenge friends or AI in thrilling duels, as you tactfully maneuver checkers and navigate the split-board. Engage in a battle of wits where every move counts!

Expect board at its core, with a streak of classic woven through the design. Pick it up for a short break or settle in for a while — it runs well on phone, tablet, and desktop alike.

A couple of things help once you get going: High scores are about consistency, not heroics. Play steady, not flashy. Memorize the first minute of each level. Reflexes carry you the rest of the way.

Short Backgammon is part of the hand-checked Glaze Games board collection. Press Play to start instantly — no account, no download, just the game.
