## Description

Shut-the-Box is a traditional game of counting, addition, and probability that dates back to the 18th century when the game was enjoyed by Norman fishermen after a long day at sea. Today the game is played with family, used in classrooms for teaching addition and probability, and is even a betting game played in pubs all over Europe! Roll the dice and lay down any numerical combination of tiles that match your roll. Just keep on rolling until you can no longer match your roll on the remaining tiles. The lowest score wins the game. If you lay down all the tiles, then you've "shut the box." This four-sided version is made of medium stained, long lasting wood with a felt playing surface. The wooden box itself measures 14 x 14 X 2 inches. It features 10 wooden number tiles rather than the typical nine numbers of other versions, bringing more numerical combinations into play. Can be played with any number of players, but the 4-sided board makes it ideal for four players. Sure to bring hours of enjoyment and old world charm to your home. A great gift for kids and adultsThis excellent Shut The Box board game set is a perfect gift for kids, families or friends. And this is a funny recreation to spend happy time with friends and families.

Review: Shut the Box is an absolute gem! The beautiful craftsmanship of the wooden board immediately caught my eye. You can tell it's made with care, and it feels substantial and lovely to handle. Beyond its looks, this game is genuinely fun and surprisingly addictive. It's simple enough to learn in minutes, making it perfect for a quick round with family or friends, yet it offers enough strategic depth to keep you engaged. Trying to "shut the box" and outsmart your opponents is always a thrill. If you're looking for a classic game with enduring appeal and gorgeous quality, look no further than this wooden Shut the Box set. It's a fantastic addition to any game collection!
Review: This game is so fun and I love that it helps the kids with math! I only wish it had 12 numbers instead of 10 but that's my fault for not looking better before buying. The size and quality is great. Fun and easy to play with just yourself or others!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Are the numbers loose or secure?**
A: The numbers flip up and down but are secured to the game

**Q: How is this played?**
A: How it is played . 2-4 players. Place all the number slats in the up position. Each player rolls the dice. The total of the dice allows you to knock down the slats that equal the dice total . Example: roll a 10 and knock down ANY combination that equals 10 . Once the numbers 7,8,9 are knocked down you have the option of using one die. When you can no longer knock down the total shown on dice/die , you stop playing . Player with fewest slats remaining up wins . It's a great game

**Q: Are the tiles on a rod or dowel, or are they loose?**
A: The numbered "tiles" are on a metal rod.  It gives smooth movement of the tiles.  They are close, so I had to really look.  But silver metal is seen between the tiles.

**Q: Does it come with a storage box?**
A: It does not come with a storage box. Only the box it came in. Great game. Simple for all ages.
