What exactly is a Ludo board?

The game is played on a chessboard-like board between two to four players, using a die and playing pieces. The name Ludo comes from Latin; it means I play. Ludus can also refer to games in general (see ludology). The most common objective of traditional Indian versions of Ludo is to be first to get all of one's four tokens across the board; however, there are many variations on gameplay. In some versions, each player must bring all of their tokens back before they can start making captures. In other versions, capturing opponents' tokens is mandatory before bringing one's own around the board.
