contents The game of Moksha-Patam, often known as `Chutes and Ladders', is a widely played indoor game worldwide. While studies have been conducted regarding the nature of an individual board, the possibilities that open up when we change the positions of the chutes and the ladders on a board are mostly unventured. In this article, we classify and study the different possible types of Moksha-Patam Boards, introduce a naming convention for them and establish a count for the boards that can be constructed adhering to some basic assumptions of the game.
