Game guide · SUNSAYCN
Learn your way around Ludo
Make Ludo your next activity in the game library. Bring all four tokens home before the other players. Check the relevant rule before repeating a move. Read the objective before making your first input. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions.
Play with two or four people on the same device. Follow the house rules shown on the board; internet matchmaking is not available.
Practice with a purpose
After a move, check what changed. Decide which rule explains the new state before acting again. Notice the feedback after each input.
The purpose of your moves
Bring all four tokens home before the other players. Read that aim before choosing your first action. Try to explain the aim in your own words.
Start here and follow along
- 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.
Input guidance
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 the visible help when you are unsure of the next input.
One way to understand the rules
A token two steps from home cannot use a three. Apply the same reasoning to the position in your own round. Notice the change in the playing area.
Notice this detail
Safe squares cannot capture; blockades are not part of this edition. Check the rule before repeating the action. 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.
