Tips and Tricks
* Get all of your tokens out of your yard and moving as quickly as you can.

* Use smaller dice rolls to move pieces that are closest to your yard.
* Use higher dice rolls to move pieces that are closest to your finishing square.
How to 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 simply 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 beginning with the appropriately coloured start square (and the player then has another turn).
* If a piece lands on a piece of a different colour, the piece jumped upon is returned to its starting circle.
* If a piece lands upon a piece of the same colour, 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 4 pieces into the home triangle wins.
Variations
* Ludo played in the Indian continent features a safe square in each quadrant, normally the fourth square from the top in the rightmost column. These squares are usually marked with a star. In India Ludo is often played with two dice, and rolling 1 on a die also allows a token to enter active play. Thus if a player rolls a 1 and a 6, they may get a token out and move it six steps.
* To get a game started faster, some house rules allow a player with no pieces on the board to bring their first piece into play on any roll, on a 1 or a 6, or allow multiple tries to roll a 6 (with three rolls being the most popular).
* If a piece lands on the same space as another piece of the same colour, the moved piece must take the preceding space.
* If a piece lands on the same space as another piece(s) of the same colour, the pieces are doubled or combined and form a block which cannot be passed or taken by any opponent's pieces. Some variations permit such blocks to be passed by rolling a 6 or 1.
* A block of two or more pieces can be taken by an opponent's single piece.
* Doubled pieces may move half the number if an even number is thrown (e.g. move two spaces if a 4 is thrown).
* A doubled piece may capture another doubled piece (like in Coppit).
* A board may have only four spaces in each home column. All four of a player's pieces must finish in these spaces for the player to have finished the game.
* A player must move all the numbers rolled (e.g. if a player rolls multiple 6s, they have to use all the numbers to move).
