Ludo

When it comes to emulators, frontends act as a way to make them more accessible to a wider audience. That is the scope behind Ludo: opening up emulation to the ones just starting out. To that end, it provides a minimalist, modern interface that is easy to navigate through, keeping you focused on what matters.

The emulators to choose from are varied, with cores for platforms such as Atari 5200, MSX, NES, GameBoy, Genesis, as well as for the original PlayStation, all coming preinstalled with the app. All that you have to do is select the one corresponding to your game.

The interface is very welcoming to anyone thanks to its intuitive design, giving you the possibility to scan your games and cores with just a few inputs upon starting the app. The settings provide additional configuration, such as video filters that enrich your gaming experience.

Upon scanning your games, they will show up in categories pertaining to their emulated platforms. The app also provides additional functionality with some helpful quality-of-life improvements, such as the in-game context menus. You can bring up this program's context menu, which will grant you the ability to save your progress and even take screenshots.

With its offering, Ludo presents itself as a great starting point for those wanting to get into emulation. It's been built from the ground-up to make emulating work more accessible, and it shows.
