About the Mensch ärgere Dich nicht leaderboard
This board ranks the fastest completed games of Mensch ärgere Dich nicht by finish time. Mensch ärgere Dich nicht means 'Don't get annoyed, man', and Germany's favourite board game spends every turn testing that advice - a game rated Pure knockabout.
How ranking works
- Only completed (won) games count, and every result is checked for a plausible time and roll count before it's listed.
- Ties break toward fewer rolls, rewarding efficient play as well as speed.
- Signed-in players keep a permanent name on the board and sync records across devices; guests can still post a display name.
- Switch between Today, This Week, This Month and All Time above to see recent form or lifetime bests.
What counts as a good Mensch time?
Times vary a lot by player count and by dice, but here's a rough guide to aim for:
| Just learning | Winning at all is the win - don't watch the clock yet. |
|---|---|
| Casual player | A comfortable, unhurried victory, usually 15-25 minutes in a 4-player game. |
| Getting good | Under ~12 minutes in Classic with few wasted rolls. |
| Speed racer | Under 5 minutes in Quick Ludo - clean, decisive choices on every roll. |
The fastest way to climb this board isn't frantic tapping - it's making fewer, smarter choices so no roll is ever wasted.
