Ludo: what to know before playing
Read the aim of Ludo, then make your first move. Bring all four tokens home before the other players. Check the relevant rule before repeating a move. Read the objective before making your first input. Keep the game area visible while you use its controls.
Play with two or four people on the same device. Follow the house rules shown on the board; internet matchmaking is not available.
One thing to notice as you play
Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round. Keep the objective visible.
The challenge in front of you
Bring all four tokens home before the other players. Use the instructions to see which actions move you towards it. Notice how the game responds to your input.
The order of play
- Roll six to leave the yard.
- Move an eligible token by the die value; home requires an exact roll.
- Capture opponents on non-safe squares.
- Six, capture and finishing a token grant another roll; a third consecutive six forfeits that roll.
Your inputs
Click or tap a piece and destination; use the turn indicator and legal-move feedback. Read a button’s label before selecting it. A new-round button replaces the current round.
See how the rules apply
A token two steps from home cannot use a three. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Take a moment to compare.
One detail worth checking
Safe squares cannot capture; blockades are not part of this edition. Compare the situation with the worked example. Keep the stated aim separate from side details such as animation or appearance. Progress is measured by the game’s own completion or scoring rules.
