What does a parcheesi board look like?

A Parcheesi board is typically cross-shaped with a central square and four arms extending outward, each designated for one of the four players. The board features a colorful design with pathways marked in distinct colors representing each player's route, and safe spaces often indicated by larger or differently colored squares. The center of the board usually contains a "home" area where players aim to move their pieces to complete the game. The overall aesthetic is vibrant and often includes symbols or decorations that enhance its visual appeal.
