Backgammon is a game for two players, played on a board consisting of twenty-four narrow triangles called points. The triangles alternate in color and are grouped into four quadrants of six triangles each. The quadrants are referred to as a player's home board and outer board, and the opponent's home board and outer board. The home and outer boards are separated from each other by a ridge down the center of the board called the bar.

The players alternate turns. Both dice are rolled simultaneously. The rolled pips on the dice constitute two separate moves (two-stage move), which may be executed with one or two checkers. In case of a double up to four checkers may be moved (four-stage move). All possible moves have to be used.

Once a player has moved all of his checkers into his home board, he may commence bearing off. A player bears off a checker by rolling a number that corresponds to the point on which the checker resides, and then removing that checker from the board. Thus, rolling a 5 permits the player to remove a checker from the five point.
If there is no checker on the point indicated by the roll, the player must make a legal move using a checker on a higher numbered point. If there are no checkers on higher numbered points, the player is required to remove a checker from the highest point on which one of his checkers resides.
