Pointster is a score keeper for board games, card games and dice games. Put the pen and paper away: the score sheet adds everything up for you, at the table, offline, with no account. Run a whole tournament on game night, share the scoreboard with every phone at the table, and look back on every month of play. OVER 120 GAMES, REAL RULES BUILT IN Skyjo, 6 nimmt!, Mölkky, Scrabble, rummy, poker, darts, chess, backgammon, pétanque and many more, each with its own rules: Skyjo ends at 100 and the lowest score wins, Mölkky needs exactly 50 and drops you to 25 if you overshoot. Playing something else? Set up your own game in a minute and save it as a template. A RULES ENGINE, NOT JUST A TALLY - Highest score, lowest score, race to a target, exact score with an overshoot penalty, or simply counting wins - Solo, free-for-all or teams with a shared score - Negative and decimal points, penalties and bonuses - Custom attributes for anything beyond the score: goals, fouls, lives - Eliminate players, add someone mid-game, undo any round - Unlimited players and saved games FAST AT THE TABLE - One keypad walks around the table: type each player's score and move on, the whole round in seconds - Long-press a past score to fix it - Live standings with the leader, hot streaks and who is climbing - Pause any game and pick it up days later TOURNAMENTS Turn game night into a bracket, a league or a free-for-all, solo or in teams. Run several tables from one phone with live pairings and standings, replay or edit any match, then crown the champion and keep every past tournament in its own history tab. ONE SCOREBOARD, EVERY PHONE Share the game over Bluetooth and everyone nearby follows the standings on their own phone. You choose who can enter scores: everyone, each player for themselves, or nobody. No Wi-Fi, no mobile data, no account, no room code. When the game ends, guests can keep a copy in their own history. STATS THAT TELL A STORY - Match cards to share: the winner, the podium and the game by the numbers - A monthly ladder for your group, across all games or for one game - Rivalries: who leads, and since when - Monthly recaps: the season champion, the best comeback, the most played game - Win rates, score trends, achievements and levels MAKE IT YOURS - Dark or light theme, or follow your phone - Avatars and a wardrobe to dress up your players - An interactive mascot with three personalities, as chatty as you like - Photo souvenirs kept with the final score TOOLS ON THE TABLE - Dice roller with any number of dice and faces - Named timers for speed games and turn limits - Shuffle who goes first, sort and reorder players FREE, WITH A FEW ADS Pointster is free. It shows a small banner and one full-screen ad when you close a finished game. A one-time upgrade removes ads for good: Basic removes ads, Advanced also unlocks custom colours, card styles, wardrobe looks and stats export, and Premium is the way to support the app further. You can also watch a short ad to try every style for 20 minutes. YOUR DATA No account. Your games and players stay on your phone, and you can back them up to a file and move them to a new device. Available in English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Japanese, Chinese, Hindi and Bengali. Built by a solo developer who plays. Feature requests really do shape the roadmap, so ask away.
