# Backgammon
|
|
|
|
Backgammon is an old, very popular board [game](game.md) of both skill and chance (dice rolling). It often involves betting and is especially popular in countries of Near East such as Egypt, Syria etc. (where it is kind of what [chess](chess.md) is to our western world or what [shogi](shogi.md) and [go](go.md) are to Asia). Similartly to [chess](chess.md), [go](go.md), [shogi](shogi.md) and other traditional board games backgammon is considered by [us](lrs.md) to be one of the best games as it is [owned by no one](public_domain.md), highly [free](free.md), cheap, simple yet deep and entertaining and can be played even without a [computer](computer.md), just with a bunch of [rocks](rock.md); compared to the other mentioned board games backgammon is unique by involving an element of chance and being only played on [1 dimensional](1d.md) board; it is also relatively simple and therefore noob-friendly and possibly more relaxed (if you lose you can just blame it on rolling bad numbers).
