Rise and Fall of Backgammon The popularization of board Game, specially Backgammon, hit its peak
in the 17th Century. E. Hoyle sorted the game rules out and determined a rule in the current
form in 1743. Set the piece on the board first, then throw the dice
each other to collect all your 15 pieces in the right inner board to
make them "up" and away from the board. The player who cleaned all his/her
pieces earlier is the winner of the game. Backgammon was played then in the gambling places in Europe and America. However, it faded out gradually from the main stream of board game because of its unclear character which was nor perfect brain thinking as Chess neither gambling like dices or cards.
