Did you ever play "Snakes (or "Chutes") and Ladders" as a kid? If so, you will immediately recognize this board game conversion, compliments of Zealock! If not, a brief summary; Snakes (Chutes) and Ladders is an old board game with a very simple premise: roll a single die, and move your game piece a number of spaces equal to the result. If you hit a ladder, you get to advance along the board, sometimes almost unfairly so. Hit a snake, and back you go - again, almost unfairly so at times!
The game features moving pieces, a built-in die roller, up to 4 human players (or 3 CPU players, if your friends don't know what 'fun' is), and a metric ton of redstone - over two hundred and fifty thousand meters, total. The snakes and ladders which the game derives its name from actually work, as well - the board knows when and where to move pieces. Player support Check it out!

you can see my stuff there but I also post on the forums, like my DOTA map recently released - full informations on here! Snakes and ladders was posted 3 weeks ago - I didn't get much attention back then
I used to play Snakes and Ladders with my friends back in the old days. I also used to cheat a lot in this game. Hehehe... Very nice contraption you've got there Zealock!!!
I've always known this game as "Chutes and Ladders", which, if you think about it, makes more sense. You climb up ladders, and slide down chutes. How do you move downwards using a snake?
