Snakes and ladder is a game originally from India known as Vaikuntapalli or Paramapada Sopanam (ladder to salvation). Ladders represent good deeds and snakes symbolize sins. This game was brought from India to Europe in 1892. This game was inspired by religion wherein going up the ladders represented committing good acts which caused to come closer to nirvana, while sliding down snakes represented sliding into evil and death.
