Hydro Sidchains & Protocols game (Snakes & Ladders) #44

Hydro Protocols & Sidchains dApp game.

A take on Snakes & Ladders with a Hydro twist.

How the game would look: If you are familiar with the classic Snakes and Ladders board game you will know the board is segmented into 100 Squares/spaces that the players counters move along, now replace those squares with 100 blocks of a blockchain that players counters move along, fling in some side-chains instead of ladders and some missing blocks instead of snakes and then add some Hydro Phases (Protocols) with different outcomes and we have the Hydro Protocols & Side-Chains game.

Setting up a game: at the Main Menu players will first have to create a counter (Player Icon) this will be the counter that moves the required amount of blocks/spaces that results from the dice roll, then players can select "Play for Hydro" or "Play for Fun"

(Playing for Hydro) When a player chooses "Play for Hydro" they then have to set the amount of Hydro they wish to wager eg. 1000 Hydro, this Hydro then goes into the a pot that the winner of the game receives, they would then have to choose the amount of players they would like to take part and play against eg. 2-6 players. After they have set the stake and the amount of players, they can then invite friends to join the game and or make the game available in the "Join Wagering Games" room.

If a player doesn't want to create their own game they can search for a game they would like to join in the "Join Wagering Games" room.

(Playing for Fun) If players would like to play for fun or just to check out the game before wagering their Hydro against other players they can choose "Play for Fun". The setup process will be the same as playing for Hydro only with no Hydro being wagered.

When the required amount of players have joined a game and wagered the required amount of Hydro its then time to start playing and they will then be introduced with the game screen.

Each player will take a turn to roll the dice (Random Number Generator). Whoever rolls the highest number will have first roll of the game and then in order from highest to lowest.

The game will then officially start.

(Rulles) Each players counter (Icon) starts on the first block of the Blockchain (Genesis Block).

They then take turns to roll the dice. Their counter (Icon) will move forward the number of blocks/spaces shown on the dice.

(Side-Chains) If your counter (Icon) lands at the bottom of a Side-Chain, you automatically move up to the top of the Side-Chain & corresponding block.

(Missing Block) If your counter (Icon) lands on a missing block you automatically drop down to the block below.

(Raindrop) If you land on the Raindrop Protocol Icon you instantly win a second roll of the dice.

(Snowflake) If you land on the Snowflake Protocol Icon this means there is heavy snow (Blockchain congestion) and you miss a turn.

(Ice) If you land on the Ice Protocol Icon your counter (Icon) slips and moves forward 2 blocks.

(Tide) If you land on the Tide Protocol Icon your counter is pushed back 2 blocks.

(Mist) If you land on the Mist Protocol Icon your counter (Icon) becomes confused and can randomly appear on any block of the blockchain.

(Hail) If you land on the Hail Protocol Icon you miss 2 turns, this is similar to Snowflake but more severe!.

As you cas see, depending on where you land with each roll of the dice the results can be both rewarding and disastrous.

The first player to reach the last block of the blockchain (The Hydro Block) wins the game or if playing a wager game they win the pot.

Would love to hear everyone's thoughts on this, I think it would be a pretty simple game but fantastic fun.
