New game alert!

We’re delighted to release an interactive version of the classic board game, Snakes and Ladders, on the magic table 360. 

We’ve made some simple but important changes to the design, including:

• A simple hand or prop gesture starts a large single die rolling.
• We’ve reduced the number of snakes and ladders that players can climb or drop down. This is so the tile numbers are more legible.
• We’ve reduced the play time by making the final number tile 50 (instead of the traditional 100).
• There are 3 versions of this game (versions for 2, 3 and 4 players) to accommodate different group sizes.

This is game number 22 in the growing collection of interactive light based games now available as part of the Happiness Programme.

Snakes and Ladders goes festive

Alongside the standard version of the game, we’ve also released a Christmas-themed version this December (and available until late January 2021).

The snakes and ladders are replaced by Christmas trees and candy canes, bringing a little extra Christmas cheer to the thousands of people playing on the magic table 360 this Christmas.

How to play the new games

Snakes and Ladders is available to all our subscribers, along with the rest of our Christmas games.

You’ll need to download the latest update to your magic table 360. Find out how in our “3 simple steps” blog post here.
