Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

On this side of the ocean it's Chutes and Ladders, which could be part of the problem.

Really? Weirdos.

God, I'm in schedule crisis, but different schedule crisis from this morning. It's whiplashy. And it seems to have deprived me of my appetite.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I've never heard of Snakes/Chutes and Ladders. That design made me think Moebius Ourobouros.

I know, but I think I always knew what the "real" name was.

Zen, it's a game I loved as a child. Way more perilous than Candyland (in terms of getting sent back towards the beginning).

ETA: Also, I expect the morality pictures no longer exist, which is a shame.

Never played Candyland either.

Apparently I was feral.

I have loved the stars too fondly to be fearful of the night.

Trust my rage

I loved Chute and Ladders as a kid.

Because books.

Chutes and Ladders *is* much more cutthroat than Candyland! Candyland makes me weep with boredom.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Never played Candyland either.

They never let you join in any of the reindeer games, eh?

I know, but I think I always knew what the "real" name was.

I know we had Chutes and Ladders, the Milton Bradley game, but I'm also pretty sure I played Snakes and Ladders, maybe a mini version. I think that's how I first knew it.

hip deep in pie

I always had Snakes and Ladders. And I assumed "chutes" was British. I'm so confused.

Candyland didn't exist in my childhood either.
