Do I need an account to play?
Nothing on Ludo.now hides behind a sign-up form. You can roll your first dice within seconds of arriving, and an account stays optional forever.
Play first, decide later
Every game opens instantly with no sign-up wall. Go to the homepage, tap play, and you are rolling dice. The same is true for all 8 variants, the daily challenge, and 1v1 rooms, which connect two players with a simple 6-character code.
Your stats save without an account
Wins, losses, times, and streaks save in your browser using localStorage. As long as you play on the same device and browser, your history is waiting for you. Read how are stats saved for the details.
What a free account actually adds
One thing: syncing. Sign in with email or Google, and your records follow you across devices. Play on your phone at lunch and your laptop at night, and both show the same stats. The account is free, like everything else on the site.
When signing in is worth it
- You play on more than one device.
- You clear your browser data often, which would wipe local stats.
- You care about long-term records and streaks.
If none of those apply, skip it. Nothing else is locked behind sign-in.

How are my Ludo stats saved?
Your stats are saved automatically in your browser's localStorage, tracked separately for each game mode: games played, wins, best time, fewest turns, best score and streak. A free account (email or Google sign-in) syncs those records across devices, and leaderboard wins can carry a guest name without any account.
Is Ludo free to play online?
Yes. Every game on Ludo.now is free to play in your browser. There is no download, no install, and no account needed to start a game.
How does online multiplayer Ludo work?
Multiplayer on Ludo.now is a 1v1 race. You create a private room, share a 6-character code, and both players race the same seeded dice sequence on separate boards. The first player to finish wins.
