Shut the Box Classic for Negative User Reviews
✓ Not bad ... Can be better.Dice are hard to read until you realize which way is the "top" of the dice. This can be improved. Also: needs Thai rules, which I find a majority of people use..Version: 2011.11.1
✓ Not worth pay-to-playThis is pretty low-end on graphics and audio. Would be fine as a free app, but paying 99 cents every time you lose 500+ coins?... so not worth it..Version: 17.2
✓ Extremely disappointingGraphics do not match screensot. Very choppy play don't waste your money. The dice don't even roll nor does the game save your score..Version: 2010.02.12
✓ Misleading screen shotVery low quality graphics for a paid app. Screenshot is not of the actual game. Don't waste your .99.Version: 0
✓ I guess it's okIt's not like the real shut the box it kinda is I guess it would be better if it was free..Version: 0
✓ BoringAfter you play it a few times it's just boring. It doesn't even keep a score for you..Version: 0
✓ Very disappointedMost roles have a 1 in it. If not, the first and second role equal the same number. And I've never seen so many snake eyes in my life. Not random at all, just annoying, and I love the real game..Version: 0
✓ LameWhat the hell is the point of winning coins if you can't spend them on anything?.Version: 13.0
✓ Don't buy unless you want to spend more moneyBought this game, played 5 rounds and ran out of coins. Can't play anymore unless I'm willing to buy a chest of coins. I'm not. No option to get coins daily. Deleting..Version: 17.0
✓ Not impressed with graphicsThought they would be as indicated in the description image, slightly misleading. Probably not worth 59p when free versions are available, and actually look nicer..Version: 0
✓ 3 shortThe numbers should go up to twelve not stop at nine..Version: 2011.11.1
✓ EhIs a good game. But wish I had looked it over before I bought it. I hate having to gamble before every turn!.Version: 21
✓ Total rip off - stay away!!!!They make you pay for the app then you have to buy coins to play - should not be allowed!.Version: 18.0
✓ LOW TECH, NO FEATURESThis is worse than the free version! where's the stats? the ability to mute the stupid die rolling sound? the graphics are very low tech! I'm very disappointed and want my $1 back..Version: 0
✓ Feel Like I Got ScammedSo, the game is well made and plays nicely. Problem is, it's bricked after you lose 500 coins which takes about 10 minutes. Wanna' play again, then pay for more coins. Had this been explained CLEARLY up front, I'd have never bought it in the first place. Was just looking for something to pass the time while traveling. I passed about ten minutes. That's it. I really feel scammed. Glad the lesson only cost me 99 cents..Version: 16.0
✓ Many bugs (used to work fine)Edited review: Developer, you did not understand my review when you replied to it. I know they are all separate games. In the past I played them before and they all worked fine. They don’t now. Only the regular game works. The rest don’t. For example in the Thai game it no longer letting me pick the sum. So that’s a bug. Not me. It’s the game not working. I’m no longer interested in this game and will not be replying further. Prior review: I recently re-downloaded this game on my newer phone because I used to have it and it worked perfectly. The Classic mode still works perfectly. However there are math bugs in other modes. For example, in the Thai mode, you are supposed to be able to pick just one of the dice, or their sum total. But it won’t always let you pick the sum total. On my first roll, for example, I rolled double sixes. All boxes were still open, so I should have been able to choose 12. But when I tried to select two boxes adding up to twelve, it said try again. It did this with other valid rolls too. Same kind of thing happened in the Doubles mode too. It wouldn’t let me pick a valid move when I tried to play this mode. It also had math errors in odd and even modes. I’d click on valid moves and they wouldn’t register. A couple times it even let me click non-valid moves. Also, for some reason, if I tilt my phone elements on the board tilt in a visually weird way. This never used to happen. Classic mode is fine, other than the tilting issue, but this game doesn’t work like it used to. I was going to buy coins (optional) but now I’m not. Unfortunately I’m deleting the game. If it ever gets fixed I may try again. iPhone 12, iOS 16.3..Version: 37
✓ Wasted moneyMulti player does not work. Numbers are to small. My shut the box classic board game at home goes to 12 this only goes to 9? Does not say if you can play some one on there phone..Version: 11.1
✓ Not good.Bad dice algorithm..Version: 2011.5.0
✓ Money SuckerPlayed 10 times and now it wants money for coins. I want my money back. Got ripped off. DONT BUY THIS APP.Version: 23
✓ No longer freeThis was a great app until they started charging $.99 for 500 coins..Version: 16.0
✓ Not as picturedThe game play works ok, just the same as the real shut the box, but the graphics are nothing like the picture shown in the description. I wouldn't have thought it was too much to ask to provide a graphic of a wooden box rather than just a digitised blue square thing that I could have created on my ZX Spectrum in the 80s.Version: 0
✓ Not impressedThe screen shots look pretty good but unfortunately, the game itself doesn't match the pictures. The boxes are basic white, not wood tone as the screenshots indicate and the nice red background doesn't exist either. I could deal with that, but the game play is boring too. Oh well...it was only .99 so I didn't lose much when I deleted it..Version: 0
✓ Weak graphics, Weak help, and Rude DeveloperGame has weak graphics. No option to play against computer. Help appears to be limited to Coin Calculations. If you want to play variations and know the rules associated with them you’ll have to do the research yourself. Developer is also very rude in responding to reviews that aren’t positive. Suggest looking elsewhere!.Version: 29
✓ No effort put in to making this decentI love this simple little game, play the real version in the pub all the time but this app is very poor - it's a cheek to actually charge for it. If the creator decides to improve it, how about adding the following: Sound effects! An A.I. player. A bit of animation, rolling dice, boxes shutting etc. in short if you are going to make an app put some work into it, this is the laziest thing i've seen on the app store..Version: 0
