Ludo for Android

About Ludo

Ludo is a classic race game where each player moves four tokens around a cross-shaped board and tries to bring them all home before anyone else. A roll of the dice decides how far you move, so luck and smart token choices both matter.

The GameHub version lets you play against one to three computer opponents at Easy, Medium or Hard, or hand the phone around for pass and play with up to four people. You pick your colour, and the game keeps track of your wins on the leaderboard.

How to play

1. Choose Quick Play to face the computer or Pass and Play for friends on one device. Pick the number of players and your colour, then start the match.

2. Tap the dice on your turn to roll. You need a six to bring a token out of your home yard onto the track.

3. After each roll, tap the token you want to move forward by that many steps. If only one token can move, the game moves it for you.

4. Land exactly on a rival token to send it back to its yard, unless it is sitting on a safe square. Rolling a six gives you another roll.

5. Get a token to the finish with an exact roll. The first player to bring all four tokens home wins.

Pro tips

• Bring a second token out when you roll a six instead of always advancing the first one. More options on the board means better choices later.
• Park tokens on safe squares when rivals are close behind them, since tokens there cannot be captured.
• Capture a rival that is far along the track whenever you can. It costs them the most progress.
• Keep a token near your home column so a lucky roll can finish it without overshooting.
• Remember that finishing needs an exact roll, so plan your last steps instead of rushing in.
