Vintage 1980 Cover-Up Challenging Mathematical Game For all Ages by Crisloid Inc

Vintage game in excellent condition published by Crisloid. Very similar to the classic game Shut the Box first published in 1750. Game is in excellent condition and is 100% complete. See photos for details. Roll dice and combine the outcome, so you can knock down the most numbered tiles. The game 'box' has levers labelled from one to nine. (There are also sets made with 1-12.) Initially all the levers are in the 'up' position. The first player rolls two dice. He or she then knocks down the levers as follows: One number which is the combined value of both dice. Or... Two numbers whose total adds up to the combined total of each dice. In other scoring methods, you play multiple rounds, with players adding points to their previous score. As players reach forty-five (or other set number) they go 'bust' and must drop out of the game. The game then ends when only one player remains in the game. He or she is the winner. If any player knocks down ALL the levers in his or her turn, and thus 'shuts the box', they are automatically declared the winner! This was later the inspiration for the NBC Daytime TV game show High Rollers airing from 1974 until 1975 and again from 1979 until 1980 under the name as (The New) High Rollers and much later in Syndication from 1975 until 1976 and from 1987 until 1988. Stored in smoke free environment. Well packaged for shipping. We ship fast!
