More than a board

A complete way to play

Focused game controls, useful information, and flexible settings—all built around the match.

Play your way

Find an opponent online, create private games, play against bots at three difficulty levels, or watch as a spectator.

Complete keyboard control

Navigate with standard web controls or a fast two-dimensional virtual board cursor.

Screen-reader support

Meaningful names and states describe the board, moves, dice, scores, and game information.

Made to fit you

Use guided accessibility setup, then configure themes, sounds, spoken labels, notifications, and reaction effects.

Understand every game

Review history, match information, pip counts, dice averages, hits, and movement efficiency.

One account across platforms

Supported preferences, Premium access, and game balances follow your account across web and installed mobile applications.

One shared game

Blind and sighted players, together at the same board.

Many online backgammon boards are rendered primarily as graphics or canvas content. Without a carefully designed semantic interface, a screen reader cannot identify the points, checkers, dice, or legal destinations.

JustGammon builds accessibility into the board itself. Blind players can explore and operate the same game state that sighted players see visually—there is no separate audio-only game and no need for another person to describe the board.

Your best way to play backgammon together.

Explore accessible play
  • The same online match and game state
  • A fully graphical board for sighted players
  • Every board position readable with a screen reader
  • Complete keyboard and touch-screen-reader control
  • No separate accessible edition

Simple ways to keep playing

Accessibility is part of the game

The same board. More ways to use it.

JustGammon does not separate accessible play from the main experience. Sighted, blind, and low-vision players share the same game, state, and interaction model.

Read the accessibility guide
  • JAWS, NVDA, VoiceOver, TalkBack, and standard browser navigation
  • Direct keyboard control with a two-dimensional virtual board cursor
  • Touch exploration that follows the visual board on mobile
  • Spoken and positional sound feedback for game information
  • Guided accessibility setup and supported preferences that follow your signed-in account
  • Configurable themes, labels, sounds, and reduced animation without hiding game information

Can blind and sighted players play backgammon together online?

Yes. JustGammon lets blind and sighted players share the same online match. Sighted players use the graphical board, while screen-reader users can explore every board position and play with standard controls or complete keyboard navigation.
