snakes and ladders... from china!!
Permalink   


so lei won a snakes and ladder mini-board game from timezone.

i remember snakes and ladder as part-morality tale, where kids do nice/naughty things and end up with what they deserve (as well as help you advance/hinder your gameplay).

so it surprised me to look closely at this mini-board game.

(Click on image below to see a bigger image)

s&lsmall.jpg


if you examine ladder 4-14, the drawing shows if you study hard...

you end up with a box of toys.

hm. acceptable.

at ladder 9-31, if you fish with your dog...

you end up playing basketball.

eh?

at snakes 49-11,  if you ride  a fun-filled bus...

a little girl will follow you with a broom.


and finally, at snakes 56-53,  if you sing in a choir...

you turn into a living doll.

LEI: No double posting!!!! :p Anyway, at least it wasn't contaminated with lead. :p But who knows? Maybe those images have a different and deeper interpretation.

Ladder 1-38 - If you run around looking like Ronald Mcdonald, you'll turn into a girl with an umbrella.

Snakes 64-60 - If you eat watermelons, you'll have to exercise.

Ladder 36 - 57 - If you dust your blackboard erasers, you'll end up with... NOTHING?!

O_O

Ladders 80-100 = You risk turning into Ronald Mcdonald and playing baseball just to get a crown? Road to westernization talaga ang larong ito. XD

Ladders 21-42 - If you carry a big bag in childhood, when you grow up you'll carry a bigger bag.

Snakes 99-1 - If you don't pay your bill at Aling Macbeal's, you go back to Square 1.

OR: If you wear a bear costume, you will be chomped all the way to Square 1.

OR: If you piss off Psychocow, he'll ram your butt back to Square 1.

May mga variations ang game na to na hindi snakes nor ladders ang gamit, so they call it using whatever up/down symbols were depicted.
 
if you're to come up with a bkada version, ano naman ang posibleng gamitin instead of a snake & ladder?
