Soon I Will Be There Trivia Quiz

Answer:

The reason games include options to advance additional spaces vary. It could be because to make the game go by faster. Perhaps it is to provide a benefit for those fortunate enough to land on a particular square or perform a specific task. It can also be used to make gameplay different from the gameplay of a similarly played game. It also increases the chances that a player not in first place can obtain first place. No one likes a game where if a player is in first place early in the game, then that person is practically guaranteed the win!
For example, in Monopoly, some of the Chance and Community Chest lets the player advance to a utility, railroad, or property.
In Sorry!, players can switch places with another player, so if Person #1 decides to switch places with Person #2, then the possibility arises that Person #2 has advanced closer to the Home spot without doing anything. Likewise, if a pawn lands on a slide that is of a different color than the pawn then the pawn can move to the end of the slide.
In Clue, if a player makes a suggestion on who killed Mr. Boddy/Dr. Black, then the player they suggest is the murderer is moved to the room in which the crime is believed to have been committed. This is beneficial to the suggested player, since that player is now in a room and can make his/her own suggestion. (On the other hand, it can act as a hindrance if the player doesn't want to go to that particular room.)
The Game of Life has two ways to advance. One is if a player lands on a spot another player is on. If this happens, then the current player moves ahead to the next empty spot. The other reason is if a player lands on a red spot, in which case, the player takes another turn after completing the instructions on the red spot.
In Aggravation and Trouble, a player takes a second turn if a 6 is rolled.
Six Cubes and Twenty Questions both have spaces on their boards where if a player lands on them, he/she can move ahead a specified number of spaces. Similarly, in Chutes and Ladders, if a player lands on a ladder, they ascend to the appropriate spot. (Conversely, if they land on a chute, then they descend to the appropriate spot.)
In Shake Up, if a player rolls a four of a kind or a run of four, that player not only moves one of his/her pawns but can penalize an opponent or take another turn (or do all three if it's a player's first roll).
