What is the Ladder Game?
A traditional game (Amidakuji) that connects participants to outcomes through randomly drawn horizontal rungs on a ladder, so each participant ends up with exactly one outcome. Commonly used for assigning duties, prizes, or turn order.
How to use it
Pick a player count, then fill in the name slots above the ladder and the outcome slots below it. Click Start ladder to shuffle the outcomes face-down and draw the rungs. Then click a name to trace that participant's path — only their card flips open. Use Reveal all to finish the rest at once, Retry to reshuffle with the same players, or Start over to reset.
How matching works
The moment you press start, the outcome list is shuffled with a cryptographically secure Fisher-Yates shuffle (crypto.getRandomValues), and the ladder's horizontal rungs are placed with the same randomness — mathematically equivalent to a real ladder game, a uniformly random permutation that stays hidden until each participant is clicked.
