Shut the Box

"Shut the box" is played as follows. A player rolls the die cubes.  Any numbers that add up to that number are 'shut' (i.e. flipped). Example, roll and "8" and flip 6 and 2, 1 and 7, 3 and 5, and 4.  If any aren't available, your turn is over and you add up the number flipped. Do this until you can't flip a number.  Whatever numbers are LEFT unflipped is your score. The lowest score per round is the winner.   If you happen to flip them all, YOU WIN!

Great for home play and indoor recess!
