Publisher Description
Snakes and Ladders is an ancient Indian board game.
Snakes and Ladders, known originally as Moksha Patam, is an ancient Indian board game regarded
today as a worldwide classic. It is played between two or more players on a game board having
numbered, gridded squares. A number of "ladders" and "snakes" are pictured on the board, each
connecting two specific board squares. The object of the game is to navigate one's game piece,
according to die rolls, from the start (bottom square) to the finish (top square), helped or hindered by
ladders and snakes respectively.
The game is a simple race contest based on sheer luck, and is popular with young children. The
historic version had root in morality lessons, where a player's progression up the board represented a
life journey complicated by virtues (ladders) and vices (snakes). A commercial version with different
morality lessons, Chutes and Ladders, is published by Milton Bradley.
