MobileBG is a free backgammon game for J2ME-capable mobile devices. It is free software licensed under the GNU General Public License. It features three difficulty levels, a tutor mode, automatic saving and restoring of games and matches, and cumulative statistics for wins and losses. It is based on artificial neural network technology.
Currently it plays at a advanced level in most positions, but makes measurable or even serious errors in other positions. An overhaul of the AI is planned to resolve these issues.
Compatibility[]
MobileBG should run on most devices compatible with the J2ME standard. A color or grayscale display is required (simple black and white will not work). Either the current release or a previous version is known to work on the following hardware models:
- Motorola RAZR V3
- Nokia 6230, 6600
- Sony Ericsson K700, P800, P900, T610, T630, Z1010
