Overview
Ludo is a strategy board game for two to four players (non-partnership model), in which the players move their tokens from start to finish according to the rolls of a single die. Special areas of the Ludo board are typically colored bright yellow, green, red, and blue. Each player is assigned a color and has four tokens [Quick mode has 2 tokens per player]. At the center of the board is a large finishing square, often composed of colored triangles atop the players' home columns.
Rules
Beginning:- 1.At the beginning of the game, each player's four tokens are out of play and staged in the player's yard.
- Playing:
- 1. Each player rolls a die one at a time. Players alternate turns in a clockwise direction. To enter a token into play from its yard to its starting square, a player must roll a six. Players can draw a token from home every time they get a six unless the home is empty or move a piece six times. If the player has no tokens yet in play and rolls other than a six, the turn passes to the next player.
- 2. Players must always move a token according to the die value rolled. Once players have one or more tokens in play, they select a token and move it forwards along the track the number of squares indicated by the die.
- 3. Rolling a six earns the player an additional or "bonus" roll in that turn. If the bonus roll results in a six again, the player earns again an additional bonus roll. If the third roll is also a six, the player may not move and the turn immediately passes to the next player.
- 4. If the advance of a token ends on a square occupied by an opponent's token, the opponent token is returned to its owner's yard. The returned token can be re-entered into play only when the owner rolls a six.
- Ending:
- 1. A player's home column squares are always safe, since no opponent may enter them. In the home column, a player cannot jump over; after one rotation is completed, the player must enter the home and roll the exact number needed to get each token onto the home triangle.
- 2. A player, who enters all tokens onto the home triangle first, wins the game.
