Hasbro A4813 uses a spinner rather than a card deck. One-color, two-color and picture results determine how far a character moves.
Why it matters
Candy Land exists in multiple editions. This page clearly scopes the rules to A4813, including picture spaces, shortcuts, occupied spaces and the younger-player rule.
