| 520 | |a Backgammon is a two-player game of contrary movement in which each player has fifteen pieces known traditionally as men (short for "tablemen"), but increasingly known as "checkers" in the United States in recent decades. The backgammon table pieces move along twenty-four "points" according to the roll of two dice. The objective of the game is to move the fifteen pieces around the board and be first to bear off, i.e., remove them from the board. The achievement of this while the opponent is still a long way behind results in a triple win known as a backgammon, hence the name of the game. Age: 5+. Players: 2. Estimated play time: 60 minutes.
