LUDO!

Ludo is a strategy board game, in which the players race their four piece from start to finish according to the rolls of a single die. Ludo is derived from the Indian game Pachisi, but simpler. The game and its variations are popular in many countries and under various names.

Rules:

1. 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.
2. A throw of 6 gives another turn.
3. A player must throw a 6 or 1 to move a piece from the starting circle onto the first square on the track. 
4. If a piece lands on a piece of a different colour, the piece jumped upon is returned to its starting circle.
5. 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.
6. The first person to move all 4 pieces into the home triangle wins.
