OLD CENTURY Shut~the~Box "JACKPOT" Family Board GAME

Wooden Shut-the-Box, Jackpot game with red velvet. Also known as Canoga, this is the old gambling game for as many players as you like. Players throw the dice and choose to shut either the numbers thrown or sum of the numbers thrown.  Each player tries to close all the numbers and thus shut the box/Jackpot. 

1st player roles the dice. Player flips up any combination of numbers which match their roll. Example: If player rolled a 12 they could flip up the 12, the 11 and 1, the 10 and 2, or ANY 1 or 2 number combination which totals their roll.

1st player continues rolling dice until rolling a number which cannot be played. Example: Player rolls 12 again but has used all possible combinations while making
other rolls

Player 1 now counts up all numbers which have not been flipped over. This is their score.

Player 2 now begins.

Low score wins.

Canoga is a great way to learn how to manipulate numbers and also has been
used as a gambling game for more than 300 years.

Great fun for all the family.
