FAQs
How do I start playing?
Each player rolls the die. The player with the highest roll starts. Players take turns rolling the die and moving their tokens according to the roll.
How do I move my tokens?
You move your tokens around the board based on the number you roll on the die. You must roll a 6 to bring a token out of your starting area.
What happens if I land on an opponent's token?
If you land on a space occupied by an opponent's token, their token is sent back to their starting area.
How do I win?
The first player to move all four of their tokens to the finish area wins the game.
Can I block other players?
Yes, you can. If you have two tokens of your own on the same space, they form a blockade that other players cannot pass.
Is there a strategy involved?
Yes. Players need to consider which tokens to move, when to block opponents, and when to risk moving a token forward.
What is the Wooden Games Workshop series?
This is a special edition packaging of Ludo from Professor Puzzle, known for its attractive presentation.
Troubleshooting
Tokens won't move from the starting area.
You need to roll a 6 on the die to move a token from the starting area. Keep rolling until you get a 6.
A token is stuck on the board and can't move.
Ensure that the path isn't blocked by other tokens. If blocked, you may need to strategize on which tokens to move first or on sending the blocking token back to the start.
Game pieces are missing.
Check the packaging thoroughly. If pieces are missing, contact the manufacturer to request replacements.
