Backgammon is only one of the dozens of online games, mostly pure games of chance such as roulette and slots, available on Game Account website and sub sites (like William Hill, Casino Rip, Sporting Bet, etc.) And as such, backgammon does not stand out especially and on the first glance, it is very easy to miss it. But once you do, it has a few great qualities.
Backgammon software
Game Account backgammon software is very user-friendly, though the board design is pretty basic. It requires no download, but you must register and open a player's account even to view the game lobby. In addition to standard backgammon, it offers the backgammon variation hypergammon, where players move only three checkers each.
Special Features
Game Account has nice selection of backgammon tournaments including a weekly event with minimum guaranteed prize of €2000 and daily superrolls with €50= prize. One of the nicest features is the GameAccount bots, which unlike the bots used by human players, identify themselves as such, reveal their skill level: RookieBot, BeginnerBot, AmateurBot or ProBot, and even stop playing you if you become too good.
Traffic & Action
The weak spots in all these multi-gaming websites are traffic and action. If all goes well, there are only few hundreds of players at peak time, and most of them play for low stakes, where the rake is pretty outrages. The same goes with GameAccount sub sites, which also deprive backgammon in the bonuses and tournaments areas. |
