Ludo

Ludo est un jeu de stratégie en salle pour deux à quatre joueurs.

Ludo was discovered in India in the 6th century. The earliest evidence of this game evolution in India is the depiction of boards on the caves of Ellora. Latest version as we describe as Ludo, was played by the Mughal emperors of India; a notable example is Akbar.

Special areas of the Ludo board are typically coloured bright yellow, green, red, and blue. Each player is assigned a colour and has four tokens in their colour.

The board is normally square with a cross-shaped playspace, with each arm of the cross having three columns of squares, usually six per column.

The middle columns usually have five squares coloured; these represent a player's home column. A sixth coloured square not on the home column is a player's starting square.
