I would say that the difference is much like the one between the English "in" and "at".
When you are in the store, you are actually inside it.
When you are at the store, your are probably somewhere near but not quite inside.
If I plan to meet a friend in front of their house, I could say ad domum tuam venio.
If I actually planned to go inside, I could say in domum tuam venio.
(Adding an adjective or a possessive pronoun often turns locatives and other non-prepositional expressions for domus and cities into normal prepositional phrases.)
Both in ludum and ad ludum make sense with venire but mean different things.
Are you going to the schoolyard or all the way into the building?
So, "ad ludum" rather means that you don't attend school but you enter (in) the building?

@Quidam Something like that. Depends on context. Maybe you're just in front of the building or in the general area.
