Modern Ludo: Board Game

The Ludo everyone actually plays — four colours, four pieces each, roll a six to come out, three sixes and you lose the turn, an exact count to get home — as a fast, good-looking phone game. PLAY YOUR WAY • Solo against bots at three levels, from forgiving to one that looks a move ahead • Pass-and-play on one device, up to four people • Online over Wi-Fi with friends in the same room — no account, no sign-up • 2 to 4 players, and you choose your colour YOUR HOUSE RULES Every house argues about the rules, so the game asks. Pick a preset — Classic, Nepali house rules, Race (first piece home wins) or Team 2v2 — or set every rule yourself: what releases a piece, what three sixes cost, kill-before-home, safe squares, blocks, exact home, and which events earn another roll. MAKE IT YOURS • 8 board designs, 4 piece styles and 12 dice to mix and match • A 3D die you can actually watch roll • Portrait or landscape — the board sits centred with players either side • Music, sound, haptics and reduced-motion are separate switches KEEP SCORE • A record per name: games, wins, captures, sixes, fastest win and the last thirty matches • Series play — best of 3 or 5 with a running points table • A podium at the end of every game • A turn clock (10/20/30 s) so nobody dawdles AT THE TABLE • Emotes to tease across the board • Avatars for every player • Someone drops out of an online game? A bot takes their seat, so the game goes on Everything you see is drawn on the fly — no ads, no purchases, no internet needed for solo and pass-and-play. How to play is built in, five steps on the real board, for anyone who has never rolled a six to get out.
