Pros & Cons

Pros

  • ✓ Natural hardwood build with green felt base keeps dice quiet and protects your table
  • ✓ Ten dice included, with two deliberate spares so a lost die does not end the game
  • ✓ Two-sided layout gives each player their own 1-to-10 tile row for 1-4 player games
  • ✓ Compact 8.66 x 8.66 x 1.38 in and roughly 320 g, easy to pack for trips or parties

Cons

  • ✗ Only four tile rows, so groups larger than four need to rotate turns
  • ✗ Loose dice and tiles can rattle or shift in transit without a lid or storage bag
  • ✗ Gameplay is pure dice luck; little strategic depth for experienced board gamers
  • ✗ Small wooden tiles and dice are a choking risk for very young children

Manufacturer description

The AMEROUS Shut The Box dice game brings a centuries-old pub classic to your table in a compact hardwood board that measures 8.66 x 8.66 x 1.38 inches and weighs about 320 grams. It supports 1 to 4 players, with each side printing its own set of numbered tiles from 1 to 10, so several people can play at once instead of passing a single row back and forth. You roll, add the pips, and flip down any tile combination matching the sum until you can no longer make a move. AMEROUS builds the board from natural hardwood with a smooth, odorless finish and lines the base with green felt so dice land…

Frequently Asked Questions

How many people can play at once?

One to four players. The board is four-sided, and each side has its own row of tiles numbered 1 through 10.

How do you actually play Shut the Box?

Roll the dice, add the result, and lay down any tile or tile combination matching that sum. Your turn ends when no remaining tiles can match your roll. Printed instructions are included, and AMEROUS notes you can customize the rules.

How many dice come in the box?

Ten dice. AMEROUS includes two extras beyond what play requires specifically so a lost die does not make the set unusable.

Is it big enough to travel with?

It measures 8.66 x 8.66 x 1.38 inches and weighs roughly 320 grams, so it fits in a backpack or tote for parties and outdoor use.

What is it made of, and will it scratch my table?

The board is natural hardwood with a smooth, odorless finish, and the bottom is covered in green soft felt to protect the surface underneath.

Is this good for teaching kids math?

Yes. Matching dice sums to numbered tiles is repeated addition practice, which is why AMEROUS markets it for number operations. Note the small tiles and dice make it unsuitable for children young enough to mouth parts.
