Product Information

If a player throws a six in the Snakes and Ladder game, they get an extra turn . However, players are not allowed to throw three sixes in a row . If this happens, the third six is void and the turn is passed to the next player. How do you end a game of Snakes and Ladders? When the player lands on the square without the symbol, the player can stay there without answering any questions.

In the book Winning Ways, the authors propose a variant which they call Adders-and-Ladders which, unlike the original game, involves skill. Instead of tokens for each player, there is a store of indistinguishable tokens shared by all players. The illustration has five tokens (and a five by five board). There is no die to roll; instead, the player chooses any token and moves it one to four spaces. Whoever moves the last token to the Home space (i.e. the last number) wins.

Zatu has an excellent range of games and for most of them the best prices too. Delivery is always fast and I have never received a game in bad condition. 10/10 would recommend. The size of the grid varies, but is most commonly 8×8, 10×10 or 12×12 squares. Boards have snakes and ladders starting and ending on different squares; both factors affect the duration of play. Each player is represented by a distinct game piece token. A single die is rolled to determine random movement of a player's token in the traditional form of play; two dice may be used for a shorter game. This party game is played over six rounds. The player with the most points at the end of all the rounds wins.
