Shut the Box Challenge

Shut the Box is usually decided by the dice. This one is decided by what you do with them. The computer is dealt your exact throws, in your exact order. Nobody gets luckier dice — the only thing separating the two scores is how the throws were used. HOW IT WORKS Roll the dice, then close numbered tiles that add up to the throw. Keep going until a throw has no legal move. Whatever is left standing is your score, and the lower the better. Close every tile and you have shut the box: a score of zero, and rare enough to celebrate. On a full box, a throw of 7 can be played five ways — 7, 6 + 1, 5 + 2, 4 + 3 or 4 + 2 + 1. Which one you choose decides what the next throw can do. That choice is the whole game. FOUR WAYS TO PLAY • DAILY DICE — one set of dice a day, the same for everyone. One official attempt, and a streak for every day in a row. • FRIEND BOX — play a round and send it on as a link or a short code. Your friend plays your throws in your order, and does not see your score until they have finished. • COMPUTER — Easy, Medium or Hard. It plays after you, on the same dice, and its result stays hidden until your round is over. • SOLO — just you and the box. Ask for the best move whenever you want it. AFTER THE ROUND Every throw is stored with the moves it offered, so the game can tell you afterwards how many of your choices could have been better, and what they cost against perfect play — measured on the dice you actually had. A high score can still be a well-played game, and now you can see it. • Game quality: how often you found the best move • Replay any finished round, throw by throw • Core statistics and your recent history MADE LIKE A REAL BOX Wooden dice that tumble in 3D, a clatter when they land, a click for every tile and a small tap in your hand. Tiles that cannot help are dimmed, so you never have to work out the sums yourself. A guided practice round shows you how it all works.
