Interestingly, these comments have come even after Ludo King does not provide the option of getting three sixes, which can usually be very disappointing and also snatches away a turn of the player. There are also comments such as ‘Only Higher advanced players always win’ or ‘Only Indonesians always win’,” Jaiswal said. Comments such as ‘Only green color wins’ or ‘Always yellow color wins’ can be seen again and again. “We see a lot of angry and frustrated comments on our app with people claiming that the game is rigged. The Ludo King team had also come across many such comments in the form of emails from disgruntled users who are convinced that a group of hackers run the game. We use a complete random dice number, but people always feel that the system is against them,” Ahmad said. In most of the matches your last token will be stuck at 1 and that 1 will never come.” “A lot of people complain that the game is rigged. In the Apple store, a user’s comment for Ludo King read, “the game is so biased that you tend to lose most of the games you play, you struggle to get the numbers and there’s always one opponent who gets all the good numbers.” Another wrote, “The game is a total fake game.
Both Ludo King and Ludo Star are highly rated apps, but the comment section in Google Play Store and Apple Store tells another story of angry users who strongly believe that the game is rigged.
In the online platform, especially when playing with unknown players across the globe, leaving the game in the middle after repeatedly getting cut is a common scene. Since the whole game is ruled by a dice, a winning move for one player can wipe off the hard work of another in seconds, making the latter feel frustrated. Not ‘just a game’ While Ludo can be all fun and entertaining, it can, at times, get on people’s nerves. However, for Ahmad, who has been working on the game for the past three years, Ludo is now more work than leisure. In fact, I like to play high risk, high stake games,” Jaiswal said. The average age group of the majority of Ludo players as per Ahmad and Jaiswal is between 18-34. Witnessing similar results, Afsar Ahmad, co-founder, GameBerry Labs- maker of Ludo Star, saw 300% jump in daily user engagement after the lockdown kicked off with the average daily time spent being 1.5 to 2 hours. “While the daily average time spent on the game increased from 32 minutes to 49 minutes, there is a considerable amount of people who play the game for 4-5 hours daily,” he said.
