Double Shutter Junior, Shut The Super Box!
Fall 2008 GamesReview:
Players compete to “Shut the Super Box” by rolling dice and adding up the dots to flip shut colorful wooden numbered tiles. Quick thinking and math skills come into play on each turn; for example, if you roll a 6 you can “shut” a 5 tile and a 1 tile, a 4 tile and a 2 tile, or even two 2’s and two 1’s. To make matters trickier, you can only shut a tile in the second row once the tile in front of it in the first row is shut. Once you have six or fewer points left on your tiles, you roll only one die and if you can’t shut a tile, your turn ends. At the end of the round, the player with the lowest remaining tile total scores 1 point, and the first player to 5 points wins the game. Shut all the tiles in the super box to score a bonus point in this fast game that can be played in as little as ten minutes.
