Board Game Overview

[Prof. Amy Lupin]

We'll be playing Snakes & Ladders alongside the main activity.

The board has 64 squares, with events relating to Philosopher's Stone depicted on some of them. Some events will have you move forward a certain number of spaces, while some will have you move backwards.

Each participant will be randomly assigned a First Year character. If we have more than a certain number of sign ups, then we'll include other characters. This character will represent your token.

Each task you complete will earn you one die roll (using a 6-sided die), for a maximum of 18 rolls or turns.

View the board.

Note: to zoom in on the board, click the options icon (second from the right at the top of the page) and select "Fit width". Alternatively, you can use the 'Z' key to cycle through the different viewing options.

We'll also include a text summary of the current standings and of the turns taken below.

We'll do our best to update the board and the summaries frequently. Please note that at times they may be out of sync.
