Another Indian Traditional Game played world-wide is the Childrens game Snakes and Ladders This game originated in India as a game based on morality called Vaikuntapaali or Paramapada Sopanam. This game was perhaps invented by Hindu spiritual teachers to teach children about the effects of good deeds as opposed to bad deeds.
