Turtle Soup

Turtle Soup is a once-played family game from the original version of Takeshi's Castle.
Dressed as turtles, the parent has to crawl along a narrow snake pathway, in the middle of a lake, while carrying their kid on their back. To make this harder, the parent is blindfolded, so the kid need to direct them.
To begin they have to crawl down a short ramp. About halfway through, the path goes in a big curve and gets even narrower. After this, it widens up slightly again to the width it was before. At the end is a ramp to crawl up to reach the finish point.
If the parent can make it all the way to the end of the snake, with their child still on their back, they win and move onto the next game. However, if the child slips off and into the water, or they fall into the water themselves, they've lost.
