Now Ludo is king of the phones, in the shape of Gametion's Ludo King app. But the way it brings players together has been enough to make Ludo the national game of the subcontinent. You can't pass an opponent on the track, but if you land on them they go back to the start. Players roll a die to move pieces from home along a track to a finish the first to get all pieces there wins. A classic board game for up to four players, it can trace its direct ancestry to 6th-century India and is built from much older ideas. What's more surprising is that some of the most successful mobile games are versions of some of the oldest traditions. No wonder, then, that gaming is a dominant force in mobile tech. Boards and pieces can be found from the beginnings of civilization - little scraps of technology we created to entertain ourselves. Nothing is more human than playing games.
