Flipping the Ludo board
Ludo is the board game of rolling a die to race four coloured pieces home, and flipping the board after losing was a familiar scene in almost every home.
Era: 90s & 2000s
What it was like
No six, no leaving home, and a piece cut down at the last moment goes all the way back. Tempers were bound to flare.
A folding cardboard board, plastic pieces and a die: the companion of holiday afternoons and power-cut evenings.
