The problem

Finding a game that kids, teenagers and grandparents will all actually want to play together.

Why it makes a great gift

Shut the Box is a classic dice game with very simple rules: roll the dice, add up the total, then flip down any tiles that make that number. When no combination works, the turn ends, and the player who shut the most tiles wins.

This wooden version has four sides, each with tiles from 1 to 10 in its own colour, so up to four people play on the same green felt tray. Rounds are quick, which keeps everyone hooked.

Perfect for…

You want a family game for Christmas afternoon without screens.

Your child needs a fun way to practise mental addition.

Grandparents remember playing it and would love a rematch.

You like games with quick rounds and no long rulebook.

01

Everyone round the table

Each player takes a side and a colour of tiles: blue, red, green or yellow. Rounds are short, so nobody waits long for their turn.

Children, parents and grandparents play on equal terms, and luck with the dice keeps the scores close.

02

Roll, add up, flip

Roll the dice on the green felt, add the numbers, then flip down tiles that match: a total of 4 can shut the 4, or the 1 and the 3.

It is mental arithmetic disguised as a game, and the children soon start calculating faster than the adults.

03

A classic in natural wood

The square wooden tray holds four rows of numbered tiles from 1 to 10 around a felt playing area, with the dice stored inside.

It looks great left out on a coffee table and comes out again at every family gathering.

Frequently asked questions

How do you play?

Roll the dice and add up the total. Flip down any of your tiles whose numbers make that total. Keep rolling until no combination works; the player with the most tiles shut wins the round.

How many people can play?

The tray has four sides, each with its own row of tiles from 1 to 10, so 2 to 4 players can play at the same time. It can also be played solo.

Is it suitable for children?

Yes, once they can add small numbers. It is a fun way to practise mental addition. The dice are small, so keep them away from very young children.

Does it need batteries?

No. It is a wooden tray with flip-down tiles, a felt playing area and dice: nothing to charge or plug in.

Standard UK delivery is free and takes 7–9 working days, with tracking. Need it sooner? Choose Priority delivery (5–7 working days) for £2.90 at checkout. Buying for Christmas? Order by Tuesday 15 December to receive it in time.
