Hi Tom.
that is an interesting idea, indeed while the game candy land as I said
doesn't exist over here as far as I know, there are plenty of similar ones.
I mentioned the thomas the tank engine themed game I used to have when i was
little. I've also seen and played a game based on Charley and the chocolate
factory (the book, rather than the tim berton film).
This used dice rather than cards, but had the same basic snakes and ladders
type of theme, ie, get to the end as soon as possible. what was fun that
instead of ladders you got things like "helped out Mr. wonker" or "you drink
fizzy lifting drinks and puff up to a new stage" and instead of snakes you
got "you tried to drink from the chocolate river and were sucked down a
pipe" just like augustus gloop in the book or film.
Beware the grue!
Dark.
