Compatible with iOS 8 and later versions, Absolute Backgammon Lite is initially designed for iPad but now supports iPhones as well. This lite version features both backgammon and acey deucey games, allowing you to play against a computer opponent.

Board Design credit goes to Marco Olivares from STUDIOMARCOLI.
