To play, participants throw dice to move their piece from the outside of the spiral track to the middle. Easy enough? Not quite—hazards like the "square of death" are meant to send players back to the beginning, while other squares help propel them forward. To win the game, a player must land exactly on square 63. The boards are often intricately designed—check out these examples from India, Mexico, and Italy—and many refer to politics or social concerns of their day.
