Snakes and Ladders

Snakes and Ladders is a classic board game that originates from ancient India and gained worldwide popularity once it was brought to the UK in the late 19th century. You’ll roll the dice to move your piece on a 10-by-10 board, and the objective is to reach the 100th tile before your opponent. When you roll a six, you’re awarded an additional move. You can play against a friend or an AI opponent.

If you land on the snake’s head, it will swallow you and you’ll drop down the board and continue the journey from where its tail is. If you stop at the feet of the ladder, you’ll climb to the top and skip sections of the board on your road to victory. The legend says that a player to reach the 100th tile will fulfill a great destiny, and this game is most popular with younger children.

The moral of the story behind Snakes and Ladders

Life is a path of ups and downs, and you can’t control the journey all the time but embrace both the highs and lows. You will encounter many obstacles on the road to enlightenment, and it’s important to face them vigilantly and get back up again every time you fall. Sometimes it’s necessary to take a few steps back to move forward. You miss 100% percent of the chances you don’t take, so even when the outcome is unfavorable, you must keep trying over and over again.
