Product Description

From the Manufacturer

This Double-Sided Shut the Box from CHH is twice the fun for everyone. The object of the game is to cover as many boxes as possible by covering the total of dice tossed. And with this double-sided version, two players can alternate gameplay. Beautiful set features classic, all-wood construction with a walnut finish and elegant brass hardware. Dice included. Measures approximately 13" x 12".

"shut the box," or "tric-trac" to some (not to be confused with the French board game), is a fun quick play for kids and adults. For kids, it combines adding the pips on dice with combinations on the tiles. For adults, it's part strategy, part luck, and potential drinking game.

Other versions have one board and go to 9. This version has two boards back to back and 1-12 numbered tiles. This allows you to play alone, with an opponent, or just play the 1-9 "game." It's well built and should last a long time.

4.0 out of 5 stars Double-Sided more fun than single, January 11, 2009

I bought this for my sister. I had never played Double-Sided before, and it is much more fun than single. Of course, you can still use it as a single if you are doing a solitaire. The product itself is not really plush, but is just fine for the price. No lid, so your can't close it up for storage. But a nice toy at a fair price. Shipped fast.

Shut the box is great for any age, any skill level. You can make your own rules or play by the ones included in the game. The two sided version is a great way to add some fun if you want to compete against someone else! LOVE THIS GAME.
