Acey-Deucey Made Easy

Add a lively new game to your board with Acey-Deucey Made Easy.

This digital guide includes one complete set of rules, 21 pages in total, so you can learn the game in one evening and everyone at the table plays it the same way.

Acey-Deucey is backgammon with a twist: every checker starts off the board, and one special roll, the 1-2, can turn the whole game around in a single turn. It's played on the board you already own, with the same checkers and the same dice, and there are no openings to memorize: every game is different.

The guide starts from what you already know and shows only what's new, with clear board diagrams and a first game played out step by step.
