About
The easiest game nights online
We're two friends who think the world could use more nights spent laughing over a good game - and we built Ludio to make those nights effortless.

From a college game club to thousands of players
2011
We met as Princeton undergrads and quickly became best friends.
2014
We started a tongue-in-cheek game club called Liars Club - a big group playing Mafia and Liar's Dice every Friday, late into the night. Making friends there was effortless and fun.
2018
We tried to recreate that magic online, playing our favorite games over video with people around the world. It was a blast - but way too much work for hosts. So we started building something better.
2024
We began hosting real game nights on Ludio. 5–20 people showed up to every one, and the community grew into the thousands. Turns out a lot of people were looking for exactly this.
Today
Game nights run every day of the week, with themed events and a community of regulars who genuinely look forward to seeing each other. We're just getting started.
Games first. Friendship follows.
We don't think the answer to a busy, spread-out life is "try harder to make friends". It's to give people something genuinely fun to show up for - and let the rest happen naturally. That's what a great game night has always done.
