Snakes and Ladders

The classic dice board game, also known as Chutes and Ladders, played against the computer. Roll the die and race from square 1 to square 100. Land at the foot of one of the eight ladders and climb up; land on one of the eight snakes and slide back down. You need an exact roll to land on 100. Your wins and losses are saved in your browser. Free, no login, no download.

1. Roll the die — you go first, then Puzzade takes its turn.
2. Move your token forward by the number rolled.
3. Land on a ladder's foot to climb it; land on a snake's head to slide down.
4. You need the exact roll to land on 100. A roll that overshoots means you stay put.
5. First to square 100 wins.

Do I need an exact roll to win?

Yes. If your roll would take you past square 100, your token doesn't move that turn.
