Love the app but

Great app. However it needs a way to restore a game if the app suddenly crashes. Got through 8 hands and the app crashed back to the Home Screen. That was horrible. In a game that has 10 hands and takes about 90 minutes to play, there needs to be some kind of backup.

Easy Scorekeeping!

This app is fantastic for keeping score and avoiding all the math that previously took me at least 5 minutes between rounds. This helps with a much more seamless game play. It even allows for the Rascal of Rotan bid and loot earnings! The only thing I would love to see with this app in the future that it doesn’t currently offer is an option to save game progress in case we need to take a break in the middle of the game or want to see past game history.

Thanks for the review! Great suggestions as well. Game history and restoration is definitely around the corner. Be on the lookout for the next update!

Best of them all

I tested all 5 of the skull king scoring apps, this one is the best by far

Thanks for taking the time to leave a review! I appreciate it!

Clean and Easy

Thanks so much for making this score card for Skull King! I love the clean and easy interface! It includes most of the options and info from the latest version of Skull King, the only thing it is missing is a way to indicate that the Kraken and/or White Whale are included in the game, and a way to indicate their use and scores in a round. I’ve read the Skull King rules and I understand adding these, especially the White Whale is easier said than done. It would be great to know if you plan to add those—perhaps the white whale could be a score override field, and the Kraken could be a “Kraken Played” slider at the top of each round? I will tip again for it! Thanks! (PS: I don’t have Twitter so had to request here.)

Hello! Glad you enjoy it! From a scoring perspective, the Kraken and White Whale do not effect the game. The Kraken just destroys the trick and no one wins it. The White Whale turns makes the highest numbered card win. If you play a 14, which comes with bonus points, you would still mark that bonus normally in the app. The other special cards like Loot, Pirates, Mermaids, etc. have a point bonus associated with them, while the Kraken and White Whale do not. This is why they are left off the app, but you can still play them and score the game correctly. Shoot me an email at zac@zcjhnsn.com and we can talk more!

Good app, but I think I spotted an error

Works great! But I believe it doesn’t give loot points if the person bet zero and got zero. Only if they get nonzero and get it. Hope it gets fixed.

UPDATE: It was fixed, and all seems to be better. Great work!

Response from developer

You spotted correctly! This has been fixed in v1.1! Let me know if you run into any more issues and please consider leaving a 5-star review if it’s working.

Great scoring app for Skull King!

Works perfectly, and the developer is responsive to requests!

Just missing one item

Need a way to add your wager, or minus wager for the pirate that has that ability. Also when you bid zero and add a loot it doesn’t give you the points.

Response from developer

Thanks for the heads up! This has been fixed in v1.1. Let me know if you run into any other issues! If it’s fixed, I’d appreciate a 5-star review!
