Ditto with Snakes and Ladders and the Goose game (juego de la oca in Spanish), with a similar gameplay. And Yahtzee.

- anthk 11mo agoParchís is Parcheese/Ludo, the four colored, squared racing board game. Here the player can choose between one and four pieces to move once the full set it's outside the 'home'. With Oca/Snakes and Ladders and such, the outcome it's the same with 0, 1 and N players. You just throw a dice and watch the events.
- kruffalon 11mo agoAh! Yes, you're right, I think we had one board with Parchís on one side and Oca on the other so we never really named the Oca game (which we almost never played since it's more boring because it lacks player agency).
- anthk 11mo agoOca could be improved by having to win with two or three tokens and placing 'attacking' items a la Mario Kart in the board. Less randomness for the game at least. Because even a paper and pen racing game with vectors can be more fun than Oca without any special slots to fall into.
