I am looking for ways to track scores for games where the included score tracking is not great. I would like something tactile, I already use apps but I’d prefer not to fidget with digital devices at the table.
Ideally I’d like something that’s:
- tactile, should be enjoyable to manipulate with our meat appendages
- easy to read
- robust, should resist some minor knocking about without losing the scores
- track 2-4 players
- go up to at least 100 and preferably also track 100s
- should be easy to increase or decrease scores in any increments
- shouldn’t take up too much table space
The closest thing I see is a cribbage peg board. Or possibly an abacus. Or maybe one of those click wheels but those don’t usually handle larger increments well. Any other options?
How are you up for jank solutions? How about hanging some colour combination locks on a board or something?
This is hilarious!
It does technically fufill most of OP’s requirements though. xD
It’s honestly amazing
