85/100

Shut The Box Pro is a flawlessly executed digital adaptation of a centuries-old pub game. In a market often obsessed with flashy graphics, this game succeeds by focusing on tactile satisfaction and clean design. The physics of the dice rolls feel authentic, and the 'clack' of the tiles as they shut provides a sense of physical weight that is rare in digital board games. It’s a game of simple math and high-stakes probability that is perfect for sharpening your mental arithmetic.

The 'Pro' features elevate this version above its competitors. The inclusion of various historical rule sets and a robust local multiplayer mode makes it a versatile title for any situation. Whether you're playing a quick solo round to beat your personal best or challenging a friend at a bar, the app is responsive and elegant. It is a timeless classic that has been given a premium, modern treatment.

Dinsun Review

There’s something to be said for a developer who just makes a board game and lets it be a board game. Shut the Box Pro doesn't have flashing lights or battle passes. It’s just dice and wood. The physics on the dice feel right—they have weight and don’t look like they’re sliding on ice.

I appreciate the local multiplayer; it’s the only way this game should be played, sitting across from someone. The AI is competent but predictable. My only gripe is that it’s a bit overpriced for what is essentially a glorified calculator. But for a conservative gamer who values tactile feel and traditional rules, this is one of the better digital tabletop conversions on the store. It’s simple, honest, and boring in the best possible way.

Shut The Box rules vary among communities. With this app, you can tailor your experience to your own rules. You decide how many tiles to flip (9, 12, 18, 24), how many dice to roll (1 to 5) and how many players can share the same app (up to 8).

General Rules:

The goal is to score the least amount of points. Points are the sum of all the open tiles. You want to "flip" or close the tiles to reduce your points. To play, each player rolls the dice until they can no longer flip their tiles. To flip a tile, a player rolls the dice and they sum the total. Next, the player "flips" any of the tiles that add up to the sum of their dice. Example: 2 dice are rolled that add to 7. The player can flip a 7, or the 6 and 1, or the 5 and 2, or the 4 and 3. If a player cannot flip the tiles that equal the sum of their dice, their turn ends and the next player begins. The lowest score for each round wins!

No need to worry about bringing the boxed game....you now have it everywhere you go!

Enjoy.
