Ludo: from controls to your first round
Start Ludo by looking at the playing area and its controls. Bring all four tokens home before the other players. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions. Read the objective before making your first input. Use the example below to understand a decision.
Play with two or four people on the same device. Follow the house rules shown on the board; internet matchmaking is not available.
Practice beyond the first move
Watch the feedback after an action. A message can explain whether the input was accepted or whether a rule needs attention. Keep the objective visible.
The goal to keep in mind
Bring all four tokens home before the other players. Keep that objective in view throughout the round. Check the rules when you are unsure.
Step by step
- 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.
Keyboard and screen controls
Click or tap a piece and destination; use the turn indicator and legal-move feedback. Use the control method described here for this activity. Use one clear input at a time.
Learn from a sample situation
A token two steps from home cannot use a three. Compare this with the rule that governs the move. Notice the change in the playing area.
Avoid this misunderstanding
Safe squares cannot capture; blockades are not part of this edition. Check the rule before repeating the action. When a decision goes wrong, compare it with the common mistake described below. Start again only when you intend to leave the current round.
