About the game
Backgammon or Tavla is one of the oldest known board games. Its history can be traced back nearly 5,000 years to archeological discoveries in Mesopotamia. It is a two-player game where each player has fifteen pieces (checkers or men) that move between twenty-four triangles (points) according to the roll of two dice. The objective of the game is to be first to bear off, i.e. move all fifteen checkers off the board.
How to play
Each player begins the game by rolling a single die each. The person with the high number can use two dice for their first move. If a player rolls a double number with the pair of dice, they get a double move. For instance, you can move two points two times if you roll a double two. Each checker is moved forward independently. They can be moved onto any point that your opponent does not block. A point is blocked if your opponent has two or more checkers occupying the point. However, a point is accessible if: - It doesn't have any checkers on it, - There is only one of your opponent’s checkers on it, or - It’s occupied by one or more of your checkers. If you move one of your checkers onto a point occupied by one of your opponent’s checkers, your opponent’s checker is moved to the middle bar. They must move that checker before they can make any other moves.
