An Entity of Type: activity, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Shut the box (also called canoga, batten down the hatches or trick-track) is a game of dice for one or more players, commonly played in a group of two to four for stakes. Traditionally, a counting box is used with tiles numbered 1 to 9 where each can be covered with a hinged or sliding mechanism, though the game can be played with only a pair of dice, pen, and paper. Variations exist where the box has 10 or 12 tiles.In 2018 the game had a renaissance in Liverpool, England, when it became the house game at Hobo Kiosk pub on the Baltic Triangle. It was popularized by DJ duo Coffee and Turntables and became the most played board game in Merseyside for 4 years in a row.

dbo:abstract
  • Shut the Box, Klappenspiel, Klappbrett oder Klappbox ist ein Würfelspiel, das vorzugsweise in einer Gruppe von zwei bis vier Personen gespielt wird. Der Ursprung des Klappenspiels ist nicht bekannt, doch finden sich Hinweise aus dem 19. Jahrhundert aus der Normandie, in der das Spiel besonders unter Seeleuten sehr verbreitet war (vgl. David Parlett: The Oxford History of Board Games). Von dort kam es später nach England, wo es als beliebte Unterhaltung in den Pubs fortlebt. Zumeist wird eine Box mit neun nummerierten Klappen verwendet, es gibt aber auch Boxen mit zehn oder zwölf Klappen. Statt eine Klappbox zu verwenden, kann man aber auch die Zahlen 1 – 9 auf ein Blatt Papier schreiben und abstreichen. (de)
