How to play Backgammon:
- Classic Backgammon is a logic puzzle for two, played on a board of 24 triangles called points.
- Each player sits on the opposite sides of the board with 15 checkers, black or white.
- To start the game, players take turns and roll the dice.
- Players move pieces based on the numbers rolled. For example, if you roll 2 and 5, you can move one piece 2 points and another one 5 points. Alternatively, you can move one piece 7 points.
- Once all of a playerβs pieces are in his or her βhomeβ, that player may begin removing pieces off of the board.
- A player wins once all of their pieces are removed from the board.
A few more things to know:
- Rolling two of the same number allows you to move 4 times. For example, for a roll of 4 and 4, you can move a total of 16 points, although each piece must move 4 points at a time.
- You cannot move a piece to a point that is occupied by 2 or more of your opponentβs pieces
- If you move a piece to a point with only 1 of your opponentβs pieces on it, the rivalβs piece is removed from the board and placed on the middle partition.
