Equipment
A Ludo board is in the shape of a cross, each arm being divided into three adjacent columns of eight squares. The middle squares form the home column for each color and cannot be landed upon by other colors. The middle of the cross forms a large square which is the 'home' area and which is divided into 4 home triangles, one of each color. At each corner are colored areas where the pieces are placed to begin.
Each player chooses one of the colors and places the 4 pieces of that color in the corresponding starting circle. Counters start their circuit one square in from the end of the arm and adjacent to the starting circle. A single die is thrown to determine movement.
Play
Players take turns in a clockwise order; highest throw of the die starts.
Each throw, the player decides which piece to move. A piece moves in a clockwise direction around the track given by the number thrown. If no piece can legally move according to the number thrown, play passes to the next player.
A throw of 6 gives another turn.
A player must throw a 6 to move a piece from the starting circle onto the first square on the track. The piece moves 6 squares around the circuit and the player then has another turn.
If a piece lands on a piece of a different color, the piece jumped upon is returned to its starting circle.
If a piece lands on a piece of the same color, this forms a block. This block cannot be passed or landed on by any opposing piece.
Winning
When a piece has circumnavigated the board, it proceeds up the home column. A piece can only be moved onto the home triangle by an exact throw. The first person to move all four pieces into the home triangle wins.
