The best "Shut The Box" game that can be played anytime, anywhere! You choose how many players (1-8), how many tiles to close (9, 12, 18, 24), and how many dice to roll (1 to 5). Let the app track the scores and wins for each player. You focus on the fun! "Play, Socialize, Repeat". Tired of the silly graphics on the other ad supported games? Our app is easy to view and play. One low price guarantees no ads, includes all features, and we do not collect any personal data. Shut The Box rules vary among communities. With this app, you can tailor your experience to your own rules. You decide how many tiles to flip (9, 12, 18, 24), how many dice to roll (1 to 5) and how many players can share the same app (up to 8). General Rules: The goal is to score the least amount of points. Points are the sum of all the open tiles. You want to "flip" or close the tiles to reduce your points. To play, each player rolls the dice until they can no longer flip their tiles. To flip a tile, a player rolls the dice and they sum the total. Next, the player "flips" any of the tiles that add up to the sum of their dice. Example: 2 dice are rolled that add to 7. The player can flip a 7, or the 6 and 1, or the 5 and 2, or the 4 and 3. If a player cannot flip the tiles that equal the sum of their dice, their turn ends and the next player begins. The lowest score for each round wins! No need to worry about bringing the boxed game....you now have it everywhere you go! One low price for all the features and NO ads. We do not collect any personal information. Enjoy.
