This is a board game. In this, there is a maximum of 4 players. Every player has 4 tokens. Players have to race their tokens and tokens have to reach the home again.<\/p>\n<h3>Rules of Game<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Every token is initially locked in the home. The player has to roll a dice and if one appears on the dice then the user can unlock one token<\/li>\n<li>Every token has to start from home and take a round trip to reach its final state.<\/li>\n<li>Each time player has to roll a dice and whatever number appears on the dice, the player has to move his token by that many steps. It\u2019s his choice which token he wants to move.<\/li>\n<li>If number 6 appears on the dice, then the player will get to roll the dice again.<\/li>\n<li>If 3 6s appear in a row, then the turn is forwarded to the next player.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Flow of the Application<\/h3>\n<p>There is a splash screen with a ludo icon on it. This is a simple one-screen application. This is an offline application. There is a dice in the middle. Tap the dice to roll it. Whatever number appears on the dice, the player has to move any of his tokens by that step. The player whose all tokens finish from start to end wins the game.<\/p>\n<h3>Features of Ludo Game<\/h3>\n<p>1. This is a single-screen application.<\/p>\n<p>2. This is an offline application.<\/p>\n<p>3. It is a multiplayer game.<\/p>\n<p>4. Maximum 4 players offline can play this game<\/p>\n<p>5. Very simple GUI<\/p>\n<p>6. Automatically handles all the movements.<\/p>\n<p>7. Game keeps a record of all the movements.<\/p>\n<h3>Prerequisites to build Ludo game using Android<\/h3>\n<p>The Game is developed in an android studio using the following technologies.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Java<\/strong> &#8211; For writing the logic of the app<\/li>\n<li><strong>XML<\/strong> &#8211; A markup language for designing an application.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Canva<\/strong> &#8211; It is used for 2D drawing of our board for the game.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Developing the Android Ludo Game app<\/h3>\n<p>Let&#8217;s look at the files that we created for the ludo game before we implement it.<\/p>\n<p>1.<strong> Activity_main<\/strong>.xml is the first file in our dashboard which contains the UI of our board.<\/p>\n<p>2. There is a <strong>MainActivity<\/strong>.java. This file will handle the logic of the above file.<\/p>\n<p>3. Next, we create some classes to handle the logic part of the application and some methods to handle the player movements.<\/p>\n<p>4. Below are some files we will use :<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Themes.xml<\/strong>: This will contain the theme of our application.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Files Required<\/h3>\n<h4>Activity_main.xml :<\/h4>\n<pre class=\"EnlighterJSRAW\" data-enlighter-language=\"generic\">&lt;ImageView\r\n            android:id=\"@+id\/player4\"\r\n            android:layout_width=\"0dp\"\r\n            android:layout_height=\"wrap_content\"\r\n            android:layout_weight=\"1\"\r\n            android:src=\"@drawable\/circle\" \/&gt;\r\n<\/pre>\n<p>This xml code is used to design the player.<\/p>\n<pre class=\"EnlighterJSRAW\" data-enlighter-language=\"generic\">&lt;com.example.myludo.CanvasBoardDraw\r\n        android:id=\"@+id\/custom_canvas_1\"\r\n        android:layout_width=\"wrap_content\"\r\n        android:layout_height=\"wrap_content\"\r\n        android:layout_gravity=\"center\" \/&gt;\r\n<\/pre>\n<p>This code will draw the ludo board. This will design the ludo board.<\/p>\n<h4>Activity_main.java :<\/h4>\n<pre class=\"EnlighterJSRAW\" data-enlighter-language=\"generic\">db = (CanvasBoardDraw) findViewById(R.id.custom_canvas_1);\r\n        assign();\r\n        Fill();\r\n        Fill1(iv1);\r\n        Fill1(iv2);\r\n        Fill1(iv3);\r\n        Fill1(iv4);\r\n        Fill2(iv5);\r\n        Fill2(iv6);\r\n        Fill2(iv7);\r\n        Fill2(iv8);\r\n        Fill3(iv9);\r\n        Fill3(iv10);\r\n        Fill3(iv11);\r\n        Fill3(iv12);\r\n        Fill4(iv13);\r\n        Fill4(iv14);\r\n        Fill4(iv15);\r\n        Fill4(iv16);\r\n        StartGame();\r\n\r\n    }\r\n<\/pre>\n<p>We will make the ludo board with the help of canvas. Canvas is an in-built library in java. This java code is used to fill the ludo board.<\/p>\n<h3>Download Android Ludo Game Project<\/h3>\n<p>Please download the Android Ludo Game project for the actual implementation of the app from the following link: <a href=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/file\/d\/1TvrJ-m-Nr42TVdXfqfwBkRdpQl-ph8yj\/view?usp=drive_link\"><strong>Android Ludo Game Project Code<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Once you have downloaded the DataFlair Ludo Game, you need to extract it to a folder.<\/p>\n<h3>Steps to implement Android Ludo Game Project:<\/h3>\n<p>The DataFlair Ludo Game can be implemented by downloading the source code and following each step listed below.<\/p>\n<p>1.
