Shut the Box (Modular) – 3D Printable Dice Game (2–6 Players) + Storage Box
A modular 3D‑printable version of Shut the Box — a classic dice game also known as ACKPOT, Canoga, Batten Down the Hatches, or Trick‑Track. Use 3 of both the A and B sides to create a 6-player board, or just use 4 sides for a 4-player game. The game comes with a sliding-lid storage box.
Flip tabs and box can be printed single or dual-color. Modular design lets you adjust player count, store neatly, and customize colors.
How to Play:
-Set Up:
Lay all the number tiles (1–9) face up.
-Roll the Dice:
On your turn, roll two dice (or one, for an easier game).
-Flip Numbers:
Add up the dice, then flip down any number or numbers that add up to that total.
(Example: If you roll an 8, you can flip 8, or 5+3, or 6+2, etc.)
-Keep Going:
Keep rolling and flipping numbers until you can’t make a move.
-End of Turn:
Add up the numbers still standing — that’s your score.
-Winning:
The player with the lowest score after everyone takes a turn wins!
If you flip down all the numbers, you “shut the box” and automatically win!
