Yellow spaces make the player measure out a certain amount of a drug. If you land on blue, you get go on an adventure of do a fun activity. Red means you have to do a challenge that would be hard for someone who is under the effects of a certain drug. If you are unable to complete a challenge, you have to move back 3 spaces.
