Ladders

If you land exactly on the bottom of a ladder, climb your token to the square at the top.

You do not climb a ladder if you land in the middle or at the top of it.

Snakes

If you land exactly on a snake’s head, slide your token down to the square at its tail.

You do not slide down if you land in the middle or at the tail of a snake.

Reaching Square 100

You must roll the exact number needed to reach square 100.

For example, if you are on square 97, you need to roll a 3. If you roll a higher number, stay where you are and wait for your next turn.
