Shut the Box is a traditional dice game for one or more players.
A round consists of each player playing a turn. At the start of a player's turn all tiles are uncovered. Two dice are rolled and the corresponding tile of partitioned numbers of the sum are covered, e.g., the dice show a 2 and a 3, so 5, 1 + 4 or 2 + 3 tiles could be covered. If every numbered tile higher than 6 is covered you could use one die. The turn ends if no tile could be covered on a throw of the dice. Several rounds are played till all but one surpass a penalty score of, e.g., 45.
