Product Description

From the Manufacturer

Fun for the whole family in this classic strategy and math game. Roll the dice and flip the corresponding number(s) shut. When you cannot flip anymore numbers, your turn is over. Add up the remaining numbers to determine the winner.

Product Description

Played for centuries as a pub gambling game, this classic can now be a favorite in your home. Roll the die and flip the tiles to equal the dice roll. If you roll a 7 flip up a 7, or a 5 and a 2, or a 4, a 2, and a 1. Adults can play pub-style for the pot, or help the younger one's learn basic counting skills. This classic is also great as a solitaire game or played with the whole family. This quality, all-wood game includes box with flip tiles, 2 dice, and instructions for three versions of play. Game measures 8.5 x 5.5 and is for 1+ players.

We really like this game and it seems to be addictive. Very hard to put down once you get started. The only negative I have with it is that this particular brand/model doesn't have a lid, so we have to put the dice elsewhere when storing it or taking it with us to someone's house. However, that is truly the only bad thing about this nice little game, and certainly not anything that would change its five-star rating.

This little game sits on our dining room table and my 9yo daughter and I play it daily. A game takes about 3 minutes. Its instructions call for using addition on the numbers rolled on the dice. However, we found that by adding the choice of either addition or subtraction to each roll of the dice, you have more flexibility and better scores. Plus, I can visibly see my daughter's ability with subtraction improving. This is a family favorite!

The 10 paddle shut the box is compact and easy to store, however the 12 paddle unit is much better and more fun to play. ... Dan
