Help on Improving

Hello, I am new to this forum, and I am interested on making games. I have started with making a board game or something similar to it. Can someone help me improve it, and give me ideas for making more chanllenging?? Please.

Code:

#include <iostream>
#include <ctime>
#include <cstdlib>

using namespace std;

int main() {

cout<<" THIS IS A BOARD GAME, PLAY WELL GRASSHOPER"<<endl;                                         

int die;
const int LOW=1;
const int HIGH=6;

time_t seconds;
time(&seconds);
srand((unsigned int)seconds);
die=rand()%(HIGH-LOW+1)+LOW;
cout<<"Do you want to roll first?"<<endl;
int first_player=0;
int second_player=0;
char answer;
cin>>answer;
    switch(answer)
    {
    case 'y':
    cout<<"You roll a "<<die<<" , you move "<<die;
    cout<<" space(s) on the board"<<endl;
    first_player+=die;
    break;
    case 'n':
    cout<<"You choose your opponent to be first"<<endl;
    cout<<"He rolls a "<<die<<" . He moves "<<die<<" space(s) on the board"<<endl;
    second_player+=die;
    break;
    default:
    cout<<"Terminating Program"<<endl;
    cout<<"Error Occured"<<endl;
	}
	switch(answer)
	{
	case 'y':
	cout<<"Now is the turn of your opponent"<<endl;
	die=rand()%(HIGH-LOW+1)+LOW;
	cout<<"He rolls a "<<die<<" , he moves "<<die<<" space(s) on the board"<<endl;
	break;
	case 'n':
	cout<<"Now is your turn"<<endl;
	die=rand()%(HIGH-LOW+1)+LOW;
	cout<<"You roll a "<<die<<" you move "<<die<<" space(s) on the board"<<endl;
	break;
	default:
	{
	cout<<"Error Occured"<<endl;
	 }
	}
return 0;
}
