DrunkenScorekeeper

It's family game night. Perhaps the adults are enjoying some adult beverages while playing games that require scorekeeping, and most of them want to avoid the repeated addition or subtraction associated with keeping score. So once again, they hand you the scorecard and a pencil and ask you to do all the scorekeeping work. It is precisely those situations for which the DrunkenScorekeeper was created. This is not about drinking games, it's merely a play on words that harkens back to the motivation for creating this app. Scorekeeper is a clean, fast score tracker for any game where you need a running tally β€” card games, board games, dice games, and more. There's also a special mode for Texas 42 domino scoring where it spells out "ALL" as you progress. Getting Started Tap + New Game, set the number of players (1–16), optionally name the game, and start. Player names from your last game are pre-filled automatically so you can get going quickly. Tracking Scores Each player has a Change field for entering score deltas β€” positive or negative. A +/βˆ’ toggle on the keyboard lets you switch between adding and subtracting. Tap the checkmark to apply. Swipe right on any player row to peek at the last delta applied to that player. Low Score Wins Mode Toggle on Low Score Wins when setting up a game that rewards lower scores β€” Mexican Train, Rummikub, Golf, SkyJo, and similar games. This affects the live standings, winner display in history, and final rankings in game detail. Managing Players Rename any player by tapping their name. Add players mid-game (up to 16). Remove a player by swiping left. Tap Reorder in the toolbar to drag players into any order, then tap Done to return to normal play. Game History Finished games are saved automatically. Each history entry shows the winner and final score β€” or "Tie" when players share the top score. Tap any entry to see full final standings with competition-style medal rankings: tied players share the same rank, so two players tied for first both receive the gold medal. Game Detail The detail view shows each player's final score with medal rankings. You can edit the Ended date and time (useful if you forgot to log the game right away), and add freeform notes to remember anything about the session. Privacy No account required. No internet connection required. All data is stored locally on your device and never leaves it unless you explicitly choose one of the share options.
