The game of Ludo is the English version of Pachisi, an Indian game. It is a game for up to four players, each playing with a set of four counters of different colours (usually red, yellow, blue and green). The aim of the game is to get all four playing pieces around the board and into the Home space. This game, made by the famous Chad Valley Company has a cross shape design set against a square board.
