4-Way Countdown!

Game ID: GID0006810
Collection Status
Description

Players compete to achieve all numbers from 1 through 10 using 2 dice and simple math. Score is marked with wooden pegs that are flipped when a number is achieved.

Basically a four player version of Shut the Box. But it includes some variation. Players may not use the two dice as separate numbers to flip two pegs. Instead they use the two numbers with a basic math operand to create a single number to choose a peg.

Example: Dice roll 2 and 6 yields
2 + 6 = 8 6 – 2 = 4 6 ÷ 2 = 3
There are only 10 pegs so 6 x 2 = 12 is out.

From the box:
The ultimate challenge of your math skills by simply using numbers on the dice.
