Learn the rules of Ludo
Start Ludo by looking at the playing area and its controls. Bring all four tokens home before the other players. Use the example below to understand a decision. Use the opening round to become familiar with the layout. Look at what changes after your first action.

Bring this focus to a round
After a move, check what changed. Decide which rule explains the new state before acting again. Use the example to check your reasoning.
Your objective
Bring all four tokens home before the other players. Use the instructions to see which actions move you towards it. Check the rules when you are unsure.
Follow these playing steps
- 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.
How your actions work
Click or tap a piece and destination; use the turn indicator and legal-move feedback. Keep the playing area visible while using these controls. Make sure you are interacting with the game rather than the surrounding page.
Put the rules into context
A token two steps from home cannot use a three. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Choose a deliberate next step.
One detail worth checking
Safe squares cannot capture; blockades are not part of this edition. Check the rule before repeating the action. Keep the stated aim separate from side details such as animation or appearance. Progress is measured by the game’s own completion or scoring rules.
