Six games, one board

The backgammon family is much bigger than the version most people know. Wurl Backgammon ships all six.

Backgammon

The classic. Bear off first, with the doubling cube and all the tactics you already know.

Mahbusa

The "trapped" variant, where landing on a lone checker pins it underneath your own instead of sending it to the bar.

Wurl

The variant the app is named after — development rules that reward building your side of the board before you race.

Zarzey Yak

A regional favourite with its own opening shape and its own idea of what a good position looks like.

3-2-1

A short, sharp misère game. Solved in theory, ruthless in practice — the hard AI deliberately stops short of perfect.

31

A quick counting game to fill the gaps between longer matches.

What you'll be able to do
