Official description
Play the world's newest and most modern game of backgammon. The pieces are on the tube, rather than a board. Like the regular game, but better... You've got nothing to lose! BACKGAMMON: Advance your runners to the comfort station. Send your buddy to the bar. Then get ready for a not-so-dangerous double. Get the point? ACEY-DEUCEY: Ahoy, buoys and gulls! Start with all stones unturned in this Navy version of backgammon. Then with a "one" and a "two", you're three moves ahead.

Description
Game cartridge featuring Backgammon & Acey-Deucey.
Backgammon: Players take turns rolling dice and then moving their pieces around the game board. Blue & Red each have to move all their pieces off the board to win, and are competing against each other and against lady luck herself.
Acey-Deucey: another way to play Backgammon where the starting position is different. Instead of starting the game with numerous pieces arranged at places around the board, you start with all your pieces at the starting line. It makes for a longer game, although just as strategic and challenging.
