NEW: Multiplayer Online with Facebook Friends & Bluetooth Option available now.
Calling all the kings of Ludo game, here is your most popular & most loved Ludo game in its classical form. How often you all wondered if we have a Ludo game in the wooden board? The board that we used to play when we were kids. The very smell of the wood, the sketching of colors, the die (dice) and tokens that will take us back to our childhood days.
I kept this very experience as my goal when I designed the game for you all to cherish those childhood moments. So, get ready and travel back to old days and rule the Ludo kingdom.
ABOUT
Ludo is a strategy board game for 2 to 4 players and is being widely played in India, Nepal, Algeria and many Asian, Latin, European countries. It is also called as Parchisi, Parcheesi, and Laadhuu. The goal is simple, each player has to race their four tokens from start to finish (home) according to rolls of a single die or dice.
DESIGN
You got classic wood and neo-Ludo boards (paper & white). The wood board, die & tokens are a timeless design. It gives you a better visual experience and nostalgic feelings. The sketch marks and crystal clear tokens will make us feel the same old classic ludo board.
The board is the square shape with 3 columns of squares and supports up to 4 players (2, 3 & 4 players in combination with Computer). Each player will take one color from bright yellow, green, red and blue. You can also assign all players as Computer and quietly watch each, it is quite a lot fun. :)
DIE ROLLING
I built an entirely new physics engine for die-rolling mechanics that will simulate the real-time rolling of a die or dice. The physics behind die-rolling was very challenging and I am proud to be the first one to implement. This will make it look like a 3D Ludo game.
SETTINGS
It has an extensive set of game settings. You can play a match in 100s of variations to favor your own country rules. Some of them include,
Star Squares (safer)
Barrier Squares (Squares that will stop opponents to pass by)
Home Squares (Entering without returning opponent tokens)
Magic No (Die result that makes a staged token to enter its starting square)
Token Moving & Die Rolling Speed
OFFLINE
Options to play with one or more Computer or Players or combination. You can also choose the intelligence of Computer (Trained, Expert and Strategic) to increase the complexity level. Bluetooth Game Play option also available, you can pair up your device with your opponent's devices and start a match with them offline.
ONLINE
Play with your friends, family or a random player across the world by logging into Google Play Games / Google Plus / Facebook or as anonymous. You have options to invite your friends or join a match hosted by your facebook and google plus friends. You can see your total wins & your rank in Global Leaderboards. There are several achievements to unlock in the kingdom of Ludo.
You can also emote your tokens, and message with your opponents while playing the match.
GAME AI
The AI behind the game is built, by keeping-in-mind that the outcome of dice is always random and unpredictable whether it is thrown by player or Computer. Computer's intelligence is only to decide which tokens to choose from and to return the opponent's tokens from its squares or not. It doesn't have any control over the outcome/result of the die or dice.
