Play Ludo with the rules at hand
Make Ludo your next activity in the game library. Bring all four tokens home before the other players. Use the example below to understand a decision. 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.
Give this approach a try
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. Use the example to check your reasoning.
What you are aiming for
Bring all four tokens home before the other players. The feedback beside the game helps you follow the round. The example below illustrates a decision.
Work through the instructions
- 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. A careful first action helps you become familiar with the layout. Avoid pressing the same control repeatedly while a move is being processed.
One way to understand the rules
A token two steps from home cannot use a three. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Choose a deliberate next step.
One detail worth checking
Safe squares cannot capture; blockades are not part of this edition. Check the rule before repeating the action. Read one step at a time and try it on the playing area. Match the instruction to the control you use.
