How to Play Ludo Game

You can play the game by mouse and left-click and at the same time you can play the game by touch controls on touchable devices. Each player picks a set of pegs and place them in starting squares of the same color. Take in turns to throw. You must throw a 6 before you can move a piece onto the track. Every time you throw a 6 you an extra throw and you can move any one peg to the number shown on the dice. If your peg lands on one of your opponent's they are knocked off and returned home. If one your pegs lands on top of your pegs this forms a block. Your block cannot be passed by any of the opponent's pegs. When a peg goes all the way around the board it can enter the home column. To land in the home triangle you must throw the exact number. The Ludo winner is the first player to get all four pegs into the home triangle.

Fun Facts about the Ludo Board Game

The word ludo comes from Latin and means I play. Ludo is a board game for two to four players, in which the players race their four tokens from start to finish according to die rolls. Like other cross and circle games, ludo is derived from the Indian game Pachisi, but simpler. The dice game and its variants are popular in many countries and under various names. Eventhough Pachisi originated in India by the 6th century, Ludo occurred in 1896 when it was patented in England as Pat. No. 14636. At the beginning of the Ludo game, each player's tokens are out of play and staged in one of the large corner areas of the board in the player's color. When able to, the players will enter their tokens one per time on their respective starting squares, and proceed to race them clockwise around the board along the game track (the path of squares not part of any player's home column). When reaching the square below his home column, a player continues by racing tokens up the column to the finishing square. The rolls of a cube die control the swiftness of the tokens, and entry to the finishing square requires a precise roll from the player. The first to bring all their tokens to the finish wins the game. The others often continue play to determine 2nd, 3rd, and 4th place finishers.
