It's not known for sure where Shut the Box originated. Most theories point to a source in Northern France. It appears that it has been played in this region for at least two hundred years. At the start of the game all tiles are uncovered. Two dice are rolled and the corresponding tile or tiles are covered. The game ends if no tile could be covered on a throw of the dice. The final score is the sum of the numbers remaining uncovered at the end. The lowest score wins. Cover all tiles and you shut the box!
Shut the Box Thai style, always roll two dice, but only cover one tile matching one of the dice or their sum. For example, if the dice show a 2 and a 3 you may cover one of 2, 3 and 5.

what did I expect for $0.99?? The $1.99 version looks great, however the glitches that are written up, sent me to this newer release of the old classic game. The history of the game is all wrong, but that aside, its still the fun classic game to play, and again, if you get the itch to play, here you go.. its simple, its not pretty, but IT DOES WORK. Only one star.. since I can't give it a 1/2 a star...
Love it, so addicting!

This is so much fun to play, once I start I just want to keep playing. Thanks for making it so I can re-set stats. Great game!

The stats do not work on this app. I have been frustrated in trying to contact developer as well as app store about this problem. Don't purchase this app unless they fix this problem.
Do not buy

Poor graphics, needs 2 player scoring, dice are hard to read and it could use more player options.

This is a very nice game for the iPad and well done from the developer. WOW what a nice update as this just keeps getting better and so much fun!! Thanks!!!

New to the game, but caught on quick. However, sometimes the game ends when I have a roll that I can play, ie., a four and a six and the ten tab is available! It says game over. Need to get that fixed

This game is not a very good app. The volume is all jacked up and the graphics are awful. I'm sure there are better apps for this game.
Looks like a nice game

The game is nice looking, but I downloaded it to learn how to play and the rules are nonexistent! Why is there no in-game link to app support? Please update with rules for each of the four games and explain how 2 player mode works, because it doesn't appear to work at all. I'm not sure what I spent .99 on!
Needs moré info

I downloaded it because I saw a reference to it in National Geografic. I haven't been able to play two persons. It has an image for two persons but doesn't seem to work. It's not so much fun by myself.
