Shut The Box - The Social Dice Game
Great games don’t need to be complicated. Shut the box has been around for centuries and has extremely easy rules. The goal of the games is to flap as many of the 9 numbers open to end up with little minus points. The game should be played by at least 2 players to throw the dice and think of the best combination. The velvet dice surface reduces the noise and the rim ensures that the dice don’t roll off.
Rules of the Game
A game of shut the box can have several rounds. Every player participates in each round. Open the flaps for each player to start their turn. The player throws the 2 dice and closes the coinciding flap or flaps. Use the sum of the die total die count or just of one to close the flaps. Lets say, you have thrown a 5 and 2, so you will be able to either close the 5 and 2, the 6 and 1, the 3 and 4, or the 2, 4 and 1. If the remaining flap is a number smaller than 6 then you can continue with one die. The flaps still open at the end of the game need to be subtracted from the total of all still open flaps. Then the next player may have their turn. The minus points of each player are jotted down and added together. The player who reaches minus 45 points, drops out. The game ends once every player has reached minus 45 points. The one with the less minus points, wins the game.
