My Android phone keeps vibrating whenever I'm playing the game. it's very annoying. The doubling cube automatically goes to 64 when I haven't doubled.

The game usually gives itself an edge, getting exactly the throw it needs. You'll be stuck on the bar, not getting a move while the computer fills its home table. I get plenty of high doubles but usually when I can't use them. Today, it got off the bar with a 5-4 throw, but moved three times: 4, 5, 2. Blatant. It's probably the best free backgammon game, and I suppose cheating the throws is the easiest way to adjust the computer skill level. But on easy levels it makes idiotic errors.

No matter what you say in defence of your algorithms, the game cheats! It is so blatantly obvious. It doesn't matter that you say the randomiser is truly random, and that it is used by World organisations, I don't believe you. It consistently throws combinations designed to give it an unfair advantage. When it is behind, it gives itself doubles, especially during bearing off. The number of doubles for the computer is 27% higher than for the player.
