ur main emphasis should lie on and between the two Subjects, now here is the rule of the different objects are joined together using and" and they are referring to the same thing, u use singular verb but if u see "and the"" then use plural verb. I rest my case here

Given the phrase "these days," which suggests an ongoing or current situation, the choice between "make" and "makes" still hinges on the subject-verb agreement. Since "Snakes and ladders" is a plural subject (referring to the game), the correct verb form to use is "make." The phrase "these days" supports the use of the present tense but doesn't change the plural nature of the subject. Therefore, "make" is the appropriate choice.
The correct answer is:
B. make
Explanation:
"Snakes and Ladders" is the name of a game, which is treated as a singular entity. However, in this sentence, "Snakes and ladders" is being treated as a plural subject (since "snakes" and "ladders" are both plural nouns). The verb must agree with the plural subject, so "make" is the correct choice.
The answer is correct because the'snakes and ladder is a game making it a singular noun and it has not be followed by a singular noun according to the rule of Concord
