Ludo - Monomad

Hello, black and white photography enthusiasts!

On this occasion, I would like to share some photos of the game Ludo. Have you ever played Ludo? I'm sure some Hive users here have played Ludo.

I was looking for some references about Ludo. It turns out this simple game originated in India and has been played since the 6th century. In some countries, Ludo has different names and terms. In India, the game is known as Pachisi. In Spain, it's called Parcheesi, while in China, it's known as Chatush, and in Africa, it's called Ludu.

In our school, there is an annual Ludo competition among teachers. We play this game individually. Although it's simple, this game turns out to be a lot of fun and exciting. I have also participated in the game. Several times I missed the opportunity to win because my opponent had sent my tokens home.

Playing Ludo requires strategy and luck. But in my opinion, luck is the most dominant factor. Strategy is merely a complement to luck. The winner of this game is determined when all the tokens return safely to the player's home. However, to make the journey with the dice, the tokens must pass obstacles when crossing in front of the opponent's territory.

These are photos of how a Ludo game can be enjoyable. I'm sharing these photos with the black and white photography community for the daily challenge @monomad, curated by @monochromes. I hope you enjoy them.
