We all know Backgammon, don't we? In this version, there are three skill levels and the game is "you versus the computer". There is no facility for two people to play each other.

It plays reasonably well at its best level, but I didn't play a long enough series to tell if it was luck or my skill.

Also, I couldn't get the 1200 baud copy to load. That makes two out of three of Bug-Byte's cassettes that were difficult to load this month. Perhaps they ought to sort out their recording problems.

This program comes with an A5 card outlining how to play, but it doesn't tell you that there's a 300 baud copy on the unlabelled side. I only found that out when I got desperate!
