The Snake Pits of Debt

Suggested age range: 10 - 13 years
Estimated time required: One hour
Format: Board and simple instructions on one A4 page

Details: Quite a detailed game aimed at older primary/ younger secondary children based on the snakes-and-ladders format; 'penalties' use examples of country-specific real-life scenarios. While the extreme ratio of snakes to ladders accurately reflects the reality of the situation it is representing, this can make for a very long game; be prepared!
