About Shut the Box

Shut the Box is a dice game played with a row of numbered tiles, usually one through nine. You roll the dice, then flip down tiles that add up to your roll, and you keep going until no combination of open tiles matches what you rolled. The tiles left standing are your score, and lower is better.

Sailors and pub-goers have played it for centuries, often for drinks, and its charm is a mix of luck and quiet arithmetic. Each roll usually offers a few ways to flip tiles, and choosing the right combination is what keeps you rolling longer. Managing to shut every tile for a perfect zero is rare enough to feel special every time.

You can play Shut the Box free in your browser with no download. The rules are simple to pick up, and the little sums you do each turn keep your brain gently engaged. It is a relaxed, satisfying game whether you are chasing a low score or hunting for that flawless clean sweep.
