Zero bids don’t seem to be working right
If someone bids zero and wins a trick it is supposed to subtract 10 points per card dealt that round.
I’ve found that it only subtracts 10 points per trick you have indicated that person won.
So if it’s round 7 and someone bids 0 and wins 2 tricks, they should get -70 points. But if I indicate they won 2 tricks they are only getting -20.
Uninstalled and reinstalled the app and it’s still the same. Tested over multiple cases and it’s the same every time.
Please fix it if you can.

Hello, I tested this and it is working as intended. Keep in mind the game mode you have selected as that will affect the number of cards dealt and thus the number of points deducted. In a standard game with no scoring adjustments, you can verify this is working correctly. If possible reach out to me via email or X and we can walk through this!
Amazing app
Works perfect!
Doesn’t score right
Response from developer
Yes it does? Zero bids are an integral part of the game and it would be quite obvious if it wasn’t working. I find most of the confusion people have with scoring come from misunderstanding the rule book. I’ve even received rule clarifications from Grandpa Beck himself. If you have doubts about scoring, you can contact him using the number in the rule book. He’s super nice!
Extremely useful app, with minor issues
It would be also great if the app could remember player names and historical scores for previous games.
Easy scorekeeping
Works week and intuitive
Response from developer
Hello! Thanks for the review. Please note that tricks won are scored as 10 per card dealt when the bid is zero. That is intentional and in the rule book. If the bid is greater than zero, the tricks won are scored as 20 per card dealt, per the rule book.
Frustrating
Great app
If you want to stick to the game manual rules, this will save your time and mind doing the calculations.
Buggy scoring?
Good at keeping score… but crashes a lot
Life Changing
Best scorekeeper for Skull King

Easy Scorekeeping!

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

Thanks for taking the time to leave a review! I appreciate it!
Clean and Easy
Response from developer
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!
