Planned
Ludo,
race everyone home.
Roll the die. Bring your pawns out. Race them around the board, and land on an opponent to send them all the way home. A family favorite for two to four players, and every bit as loud as you remember.
This is our plan for Ludo, one of six family games we added to the roadmap in September 2026. We haven't started it yet, and its place in the build order is still being decided.

A bright board, on a warm table
Four clear colors, each with a shape to match, and a die that rolls right where you can see it.
Illustrations of the planned design. The finished app may look different.
How Ludo plays
Four pawns each. One die. One race around the board.
Roll
Roll a six to bring a pawn onto the track. Then roll again.
Race
Move a pawn forward by the roll. Land on an opponent, and back home they go.
Home
Bring all four pawns home first, and you win.
Honest dice. Family fun.
Honest dice
Every roll comes from a random seed. You can review every roll of the game.
The whole family
Two to four players over FaceTime, in the same room, or around one iPad.
Fair computer players
They see the same board you do, never the next roll. And they'll fill any open seat.
A free hint every game
“Show a move” suggests which pawn to move, and explains why.
Undo a slip
Against the computer, take back a move before the next roll.
Works offline
Play anywhere. Nothing ever leaves your device.
Ludo for everyone
Colors with shapes. Spoken rolls. And a pace that's entirely yours.
VoiceOver throughout
Every pawn and square is announced, and every move is spoken. Ludo works without looking.
Voice and Switch Control
Standard accessibility actions, including a list of the moves you can make.
Sizes that fit
A larger board and pawns when you want them, with full Dynamic Type everywhere else.
Color-blind friendly
Every player's pawns have their own shape as well as color. Never color alone.
Reduce Motion
Pawns fade into place instead of hopping when Reduce Motion is on.
Rolls announced
Hear each roll, each move, and the moment a pawn is sent home.
Free to play. Pro if you'd like more.
Pro is one optional purchase, for families who play all the time. Nothing to renew, nothing to remove.

Good to know
When will Ludo be released?
Not yet. Ludo is on the roadmap, and we haven't started it. We don't announce dates we can't keep. The day it's ready, you'll find a download link here.
Will it cost anything?
Not to play. Ludo will be free to download and the whole game free to play. Pro will be an optional one-time purchase. There will never be ads or a subscription.
Can I play with friends?
Yes. Ludo is made for exactly that. Invite people you know over FaceTime or Messages with SharePlay, or through Game Center, live or taking turns over days. It's always free, with no accounts and no servers of ours. There's no matchmaking with strangers.
Is this Parcheesi?
No. It's Ludo, the public-domain race game that comes from India's Pachisi. “Parcheesi” is another company's trademark, and we don't use it.
Are the dice really random?
Yes. Each game's rolls come from a random seed, and you can review every roll afterwards. The computer players never see the next roll.
Do I need an internet connection or an account?
Neither. Playing alone works offline, with no account and no sign-in. Your games and stats stay on your device.
Will it come to Android?
That's where we're headed. After the iPhone and iPad apps, we plan to bring the whole collection to Android.
Data Not Collected
That's the App Store privacy label on every app we make, Ludo included. No accounts, no analytics, no advertising. Nothing you do in the app leaves your device.
Something to play now.
Ludo comes after the games already in progress, and its place in line is still being decided. There's no mailing list, because we don't collect email addresses. Check back here.
