KIDAMI Magnetic Ludo Board Game – Foldable, Portable Travel Set for All Ages (9.5x9.5 in)
The KIDAMI Magnetic Ludo Board Game brings the classic Indian pastime to a portable, travel-friendly format. Designed for 2–4 players, the board opens to 9.5 x 9.5 inches and folds down to 9.5 x 4.7 x 1.5 inches, with all pieces and two dice stored safely inside. Magnetic pieces hold firmly in place even when the board is tilted or turned upside down, so games stay uninterrupted during car rides, picnics, or camping trips.
What Makes the KIDAMI Ludo Set Different?
Unlike many travel games that use flimsy boards or loose pieces, this set uses a durable HIPS plastic board and pieces with built-in magnets. The magnets are strong enough to keep pieces attached when the board is fully inverted, yet allow smooth sliding during play. The board opens with a convenient flap and turns into its own storage box, keeping dice and pieces secure. A separate compartment inside the folded board holds everything tidy, so nothing gets lost.
Magnetic Pieces for Stable Play
Each piece has a magnet in its base, so it stays put on the metal-infused board. You can bump the table or carry the board mid-game without the pieces scattering. This is especially handy for younger players who might knock the board accidentally. The four colors (typically red, yellow, green, blue) make it easy to identify each player's pieces. The star spaces on the board offer safe zones where pieces cannot be captured.
Portable and Practical Storage
The board measures 9.5 x 4.7 x 1.5 inches when folded – small enough to slip into a backpack or large handbag. The lightweight design (no weight specified but clearly light) makes it effortless to take along. When you open the flap, you can remove the pieces and dice, then close the board flat to play. After the game, everything goes back inside the board for storage. This self-contained design means no separate boxes or bags required.
Who Is This Game For?
Ludo is a game for all ages. Kids learn counting and strategy, adults enjoy the nostalgic fun, and families can bond over a shared activity. It works well at home, in the classroom, on road trips, or at a campsite. The colorful printed box makes it a nice gift for birthdays, holidays, or any occasion.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can the board be played on an uneven surface like a lap or grass?
Yes. The magnetic pieces grip the board securely even if the board is not perfectly level. However, extreme tilting may still cause pieces to slide; the magnets are meant to prevent accidental bumps, not gravity.
How many dice are included?
The set comes with two dice, which is standard for Ludo.
Is the board suitable for young children?
Small pieces can be a choking hazard for children under 3. For older kids, the magnetic feature helps keep pieces from getting lost and makes gameplay less frustrating.
What if a piece gets lost?
The self-contained storage helps prevent loss. If a piece does go missing, you may contact KIDAMI for replacement options (not guaranteed).
