Thanks for the instructions. I saw a TikTok with people playing and ordered one for Christmas. Unfortunately, it didn't come with directions, so it's great to have this instructional give the full details.

I got mine today

We played a variation of this in elementary where we could add, subtract, multiply, or divide to get the needed number. This is a great math game for young kids.

Thank you that was very helpful. I actually just got the game today in the mail and super excited to play with my family.

[@destinygaming2402]

Hey man good video. But the tone in which you're saying SHUT THE BOX sounds offensive 😂😂

[@JMNCGames]

haha.....thanks for watching. :-)

[@Cathewiese]

If your down to a 2 and 4 and you roll a 4, can you pass or do you have to play the 4? Thus waiting to roll a 6.

[@user-dw2pp8rc9g]

The TOTAL of the slabs has to be six or less to roll one dice.

[@firstchoice5391]

Hello, can i use your video to explain my customers? it has to be uploaded on website, Please advice

[@JMNCGames]

of course. thank you!

How did they play for wages interested in knowing

[@JMNCGames]

historically i am not sure, however, you could placie a small, static wager per player, such as $2 each. The winner takes all. In case of a tie, the pot is split. Advanced players may wish to accept variable bets, based on the difference in total scores. You could do this as quarter per point, where a loss of 14 to 6 would cost the loser $2. This is simple enough in a 2-player game. similiar to how people bet on cribbage.

[@yodenman]

If there are multiple players what happens if more than one player is able to shut the box. Is it a draw or do these players do another round until there is a winner ?

[@JMNCGames]

thanks for watching and good question. I had to do some digging on that and from what i have read a tie in this manner is not possible, as once one player shuts the box, they are automatically the winner of that round. So a player who is later would not have the opportunity to do the same in that game.

[@sunsetnwaves]

@@JMNCGames wait but wouldn’t that give a player a leg up based on the order they were playing. 🥴

[@Endeva09]

It's impossible to have 2 players shut the box, if you shut the box you win. You rotate the player one position in scoreboard order.

[@susancooper-mp5zo]

​@@sunsetnwaves, it's the same in any other game...cards, Sorry, etc. Since each person gets a turn, whoever finishes the game first is the winner.

[@rrogers2370]

Your games different. I have one that goes up to 12.

[@michellebatho1792]

How is the score 15 and not 159?

[@abck613]

1+5+9=15

[@marleneberman5037]

You didn’t explain what shut the box means

[@JMNCGames]

hey thanks for watching..... The overriding goal is to completely cover all numbers or "shut the box" which results in the best possible score of zero. so in flipping down all of the numbers you are SHUTTING THE BOX.

[@user-dw2pp8rc9g]

The single version is in a box with a lid, so when you win...you shut the box.
