Backgammon can now be played using 3 different backgammon apps:
The above app selection box is shown on top of backgammon listings page.
With 'Blue App' selected, subsequent selection of "Main Hall" will show backgammon in blue-and-white and traditional non-patterned colors for backgammon tables
With 'Green App' selected, subsequent selection of "Main Hall" will show gin rummy on modern patterned green background.
See Help and Video for Blue/Green Backgammon Web Apps
With "Java" selected, subsequent selection of "Main Hall" will show an old-style Java applet for gin rummy that will work only if Java is installed correctly from http://www.java.com

At GameColony.com you can play games of skill only -- play for free or play for $prizes!.
According to the statutes of most states in the United States, gambling is defined as: "risking something of value upon the outcome of a contest of chance". (Also see No Gambling!). The skill (as opposed to chance) is predominant in games of skill. Playing games of skill for $prizes, therefore, has nothing to do with gambling as it is not a contest of chance -- the more skillful player will win far more often. The chance element of a 'gamble' is either insignificant or missing. When players compete in tournaments or games of skill for $prizes -- it is "competitive entertainment" rather then "gambling". The more skilled winner will always win more matches, tournaments and $prizes.
