How to play the cycle of Poverty

The aim of the game is to be the first player to reach the end by moving across the board from square 1 to square 50. You will travel the board from base to top, right, and then left and so on. Decide on your order and start playing the game. (2-6 players) Snake: if a player lands at the tip of the snake's head, his or her marker slides down to the square at the snake's tail. Ladder: if a player lands on a square that is at the base of a ladder, his or her marker moves to the square at the top of the ladder and continues from there. Complete the game. The first player to square 50 is the winner but you must have the correct number on the dice to land on the 50 mark. Eg, if you are on the 49th square but you roll a 3 you then go to the 48th square. (<- 50, ->49, -> 48) There will be some traps and some treasures. Each trap or treasure will have an instruction which must be followed. Eg, trap: skip one turn because you didnt take good care of your cow and it died, reducing your daily income. Treasure: advance 3 squares: A bridge was built across the river. This allows your children to go to the public school faster.
