Ludo Rules

  • Roll a 6 to move a piece from your home base onto the board
  • Rolling a 6 gives you an extra turn
  • Move pieces clockwise around the board toward your finish lane
  • Landing on an opponent's piece sends it back to their home
  • First player to move all 4 pieces to their finish area wins

Ludo Tips & Strategies

  • Try to keep multiple pieces on the board - don't rely on just one
  • When you're behind an opponent, consider capturing them to gain an advantage
  • Move pieces that are close to finishing first - they're safer
  • Use your 6s wisely - sometimes bringing a new piece out is better than moving
  • Watch for opponents who might capture you and move strategically
