We think all workouts are fun, each one for different reasons. Ladders are a fun way to challenge yourself to aim to use heavier weights, jump higher, run faster, etc as the reps/time decrease. There is also a unique mental toughness that is required when doing some ladders, especially the first 1-3 rounds of a descending ladder. You feel like you still have so many reps to complete, then all of a sudden there are less reps and each round speeds up.
