Play Snakes and Ladders

Snakes and Ladders is a casual online game adapted from the English board game of the same name, which influenced the American version of Chutes and Ladders. This much-loved classic board game is free to play single-player or locally with friends. Roll the dice and make your way to the top. Hopefully, you don’t land on a snake!

How to Play Snakes and Ladders

You can play with up to six players; each gets to select a color. Roll the dice and move your piece. If you roll a 6, you get another roll for free. You can play Snakes and Ladders with up to 6 friends or AI opponents.

Climb ladders - dodge snakes

There are ladders and snakes of varying lengths scattered around the board. Landing on a snake causes you to slide down the board, while you can climb up ladders you land at the foot of.

Chutes and Ladders

This game also includes Chutes and Ladders. It's the same game, but there are chutes instead of snakes. This is a great kid-friendly version of the game and is the most popular version in the US.

About Snakes and Ladders

Snakes and Ladders is a chance-based board game featuring 100 squares. Players must get to the top while dealing with the consequences of every dice roll.

Historically, the game was used to teach children basic moral values. The ladders represented virtues, while the snakes represented vice. Today, it could be seen as a metaphor for life’s journey with all of its ups and downs.
