How to play

1. 1Open board / casual multiplayer and tap Snakes and Ladders (serpents + ladders grid — not the Ludo cross board).
2. 2Read exact-finish, extra-roll, and snake/ladder lists for this room once.
3. 3Join a stake table and wait for all seats to fill.
4. 4On your turn, roll the dice and move your single token the shown steps.
5. 5Land on a ladder base to climb to the top; land on a snake head to slide to the tail.
6. 6If exact finish is required, bounce or wait per the sheet when you overshoot the last square.
7. 7First player to finish under the posted rule wins the table pot per the room sheet.
8. 8Rematch is a new buy-in — snake positions may match the classic layout or a room remix; check the board art.

Example

₹25 buy-in, four seats. You sit on 28, roll a 5 to a ladder base, and climb to 55. A rival on 62 hits a snake to 19. Later you need exact 3 to finish; you roll 5, bounce per this room’s overshoot rule, and stay put. Next turn a 3 finishes and takes the pot share. That climb-and-slide story is snakes/ladders risk — not Ludo capture on a safe star.

Rules & scoring

One token per player in standard Snakes and Ladders — not Ludo’s four-token yard.

There is usually no capture: landing on a rival does not send them home unless this rare room sheet says so.

Ladders help; snakes hurt — tile numbers follow the board printed in this room.

Exact landing on the final square is common; overshoot rules are sheet-specific.

Extra rolls on six (if any) follow this room — do not paste Ludo Classic habits blindly.

Timer rooms may auto-roll a slow turn; watch the clock.

Variants in the app

These table names appear in Win Rummy lobbies and can change with updates. Always read the room sheet before you sit.

• Classic 100-squareFamiliar snake and ladder map — learn exact finish before raising stakes.
• Quick boardShorter path or fewer snakes; faster pots — still not Ludo Quick tokens.
• Remix layoutSnake/ladder numbers differ from the toy-board memory — read the in-room map.

How it compares

Snakes and Ladders is one-token climb with ladders and snakes. Ludo is a four-token race with yards, safe squares, and captures. Mini Golf is putting, not dice. Fortune Wheel and Dice multiplayer rooms are bet-and-settle tiles, not path races. Do not copy Ludo capture tactics onto this board.

Where to open it in the app

Board / casual multiplayer → Snakes and Ladders grid with serpents and ladders. Ludo shows the colourful cross with four yards — different tile and different page. If the art shows four tokens in bases, you opened Ludo by mistake.

Tips & common mistakes

Welcome rupees

Snakes and Ladders welcome copy often sits near ₹32 — enough for a low cash-battle seat while you learn this board’s snake dens and exact-finish rule. If you meant four-token Ludo, open that tile instead; this bonus note is for the snakes board only.
