A classic children's board game
played between 2 or more players on a playing board with numbered grid squares. On certain squares on the grid are drawn a number of "ladders" connecting
two squares together, and a number of "snakes" also connecting squares together. The size of the grid (most commonly 8×8, 10×10 or 12×12) varies from board to board, as does the exact arrangement of the snakes and the ladders: both of these
may affect the duration of game play.
Snakes and ladders' simplicity and the see-sawing nature of the contest make it
popular with younger children, but the lack of any
skill component in the game generally makes it less appealing for older players.
What's the name of the game that we are playing
Boy whenever I think that we are winning
Then you roll the
dice take a
slide
Right back to the one from 99
Is it gonna go on like this
forever
Are we gonna to take that last step together
Going round and round and up and down
Feels just like snakes & ladders
