About This Game

"Is it a platformer? ...a board game? ...a casual game? ...what the...!? What even IS this game!?"

Welcome to Platboarder, a niche game that doesn't just revel in its own identity crisis, it waltzes right into it wearing mismatched socks! This is what happens when your childhood board game meets a retro platformer from the 1990s!

Rolling the dice isn't just a way to move, it's a way of life. Will you play your cards right or just end up with handful of regrets? Can you dodge the dangers or will you trip over your own ego? Don't let the adorably cuteness of this game fool you, at the heart of this simple-seeming dice and card game lays strategies only a few will discover, let alone master. The Queen is waiting for you to prove your worth. Be sure to go through the How To Play, you'll never make it without knowing the rules! So, are you ready to roll?

And if all else fails, you can just spend two hours tickling the pawn.

Platboarder is a little passion project by indie devs, so new gameplay features, levels, and weird fun will continue to be added over time. The journey doesn't end here!

I came in with no expectations, played for a while and thought "Hmm this is really fun" Then I got to a back sign and rolled 6 ones in a row and lost all my lives. Now I wanna tear off my own face... 10/10 recommend.

First and foremost, the combination of snakes and ladders, chess, and Mario mechanics creates a gameplay dynamic that is both challenging and addictive. It's a brilliant fusion that keeps you engaged from start to finish. The incorporation of chess-like elements adds a strategic layer, making each move feel like a calculated decision rather than just mindless platforming. The level design is nothing short of fantastic. Each stage presents a new set of puzzles and obstacles that require careful planning and precise execution. The progression is well-paced, ensuring that the difficulty gradually ramps up as you improve your skills. It's immensely satisfying to see yo...

OMG!!! This game is too much fun. The graphics look kind of simple, but don't let that fool you, there is a lot of depth and strategy here. Just started playing it and it's a great time waster, plus the sound effects are so funny. Totally worth it.

This game is frustratingly fun! You can learn how to play it by just trying things out, which I like. It does seem like the odds of rolling a 1 when you're next to a hole are DRAMATICALLY INCREASED lol. Overall very cute and fun!
