Snakes & Ladders Well-Being

Snakes & Ladders – Well-Being is a modern, therapist-designed adaptation of the classic board game. Created by Rewise and Bart(Code), it turns every dice roll into a practical exercise in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Positive Psychology.

Why play?
Snakes = emotional barriers
Avoidance, self-doubt, stress and cognitive traps. Landing on a snake invites you to notice thoughts and feelings that pull you away from your values.

Ladders = helpful strategies
Mindfulness, acceptance, self-compassion and character strengths. Climbing a ladder lets you practise proven techniques that move you toward the life you want.

Game modes
Solo reflection – roll at your own pace and journal insights.

Local multiplayer (one to four players) – ideal for therapy groups, classrooms or family time.

Session timer and automatic dice – keeps group sessions flowing smoothly.

Key features
Built-in deck of choice-point cards for guided discussion.

Clear, colour-coded board adapted for cognitive and visual accessibility.

Adjustable text size and contrast for phones and tablets.

Fully offline experience with no advertising, data collection or sign-ups.

Clinical roots, universal benefit
Originally piloted in an eight-week wellbeing programme for people with acquired brain injury, the game supports anyone interested in resilience, values-based living or ACT homework.
