Product Description
Our version of this 18th century game comes in a deluxe wooden box with an Old World look - Shut-the-Box is a traditional game of dice, chance, and probability and is betting game played in pubs all over Europe. This improved wood version with a felt playing surface has 12 numbers, rather than the typical 9 numbers of other versions, bringing more numerical combinations into play. This game was enjoyed by Norman fishermen after a long day at sea. 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."Shut the Box Game with 12 Numbers in an Old World Styled Wood Box with a Lid and a Brass Latch Review
You can't find a 12-number game in retail stores. 12-number is the way to go...... have played both kinds. Thus, had to rely on an e-merchant. Researched this pretty thoroughly.... this one had the best cosmetic look and appearance of quality - which is what I was after. Wish the lid opened completely - or came completely off. Since the lid only opens (only) vertically, it frequently closes when you place it in your lap...... which is what we like to do. Therefore, you have to play this one on a table top. So mixed reviews from me..... aesthetically nice looking....decent quality.... but can't play with it in your lap. Note: Sent the supplier an inquiry about the lid..... they said it opened all the way flat (so that was definitely wrong information)..... but they didn't hesitate to send me a new one after I reported the one I received had an unsightly scratch on the lid..... so kudos to them on that. I say get it if you don't mind playing on a table top.
