Shut the Fold: Shut the Box

Shut the Fold is Shut the Box, the old pub dice game, made for iPhone Duo. The phone is the box. Shut it to pick up the dice, give it a shake to rattle them, and open it to see what you rolled. Tap the tiles that add up to your roll and they tip shut. Keep going until nothing adds up. What's left standing is your score, and lower is better. Shut every tile and you've shut the box. MADE FOR THE HINGE • Shut, shake and open to roll. The cover screen becomes the lid, and you hear and feel the dice knock inside • Real dice physics: every throw bounces off the felt, the walls and the other die • Wood, felt and dice all drawn on the phone, and every sound synthesized. No photos, no recordings • Stand it half open like a laptop: the tiles hang on the upright half, and the dice land on the flat one • There's always a Roll button too, and it plays on any iPhone and iPad A NEW BOX EVERY DAY • The daily box gives everyone in the world the same dice, and one go at them • Share your result as a picture, keep a streak going, and climb the Game Center leaderboard • A home-screen widget for your streak, a daily reminder if you want one, and a calendar of every box you've played TWO PLAYERS, ONE PHONE • Lay the open phone between you: a row of tiles at each end, and the dice turn to face whoever is rolling • Best of three rounds, lowest total wins • Your first match is free NEW TO THE GAME? • A short guide the first time you open it • Hint points at the best tiles to shut, worked out by playing every position to the end Free to play, with no ads, no accounts and no subscription.
