Galison Books and Ladders Classic Board Game

Books and Ladders gives Snakes & Ladders a wonderfully bookish setting. Hyesu Lee fills the board with a colourful reader's bookshelf, where ladders still carry players upward but long bookmark ribbons replace the usual snakes on the way down. The familiar game stays easy to understand, while the shelves, books and illustrated details make the board itself enjoyable to look over between turns.
