Play online with friends
Text a code and your friend is at the table. No account, no game server.
Ludo Genie’s online mode links two devices directly. The first player creates a game and gets a secret code to share by text, email or as an image. The second player pastes it in Join. A six-digit check code appears on both sides to confirm you are connected to the right person.
Chain head-to-head duels (chess, checkers, four in a row), races on the same grid (sudoku, minesweeper, crosswords: best result wins), physics games (pool, curling, crokinole) and hidden-hand card games (hearts, euchre, cribbage, poker). Rematch, resign and quick messages are built in.
The connection is end-to-end encrypted and the no-trace mode writes nothing to the device.

Frequently asked questions
Does my friend need an account?
No. They open the link or code you send, and that is it.
Is the connection secure?
Yes. Messages are end-to-end encrypted (AES-256-GCM) and the six-digit check code confirms who you are playing with.
Can more than two people play online?
Some games accept several players. For in-person evenings, see the Party Games too, where everyone plays on their own phone.
