Ludo rules

Players and board

• Ludo is played by 2 to 4 players, each with 4 pieces.
• The board has a 52-square track, a 5-square home lane for each color and the home in the middle.

Die and start

• One die is rolled.
• A piece leaves home with a 6.
• Rolling a 6 gives another roll.
• Three 6s in a row lose the turn.

Capturing

• Landing exactly on a rival piece captures it and sends it home.
• Capturing gives another roll.
• Start squares and star squares are safe.
• A shielded piece cannot be captured.

Getting home and winning

• After a full lap a piece enters its own home lane.
• You need the exact roll to get home.
• Getting a piece home gives another roll.
• The first player to bring all four pieces home wins.
