How card game scoring works
In the classic scoring system, the player who empties their hand first scores the value of all the cards left in their opponents' hands. Number cards count their face value, action cards such as draw two, skip and reverse count 20, and wild cards count 50. Play continues round after round until someone reaches the target — traditionally 500 points.
Use the hand counter to add up a hand quickly: type the number cards, tap in the action and wild cards, and press "Use this total" to drop it into the next empty box of the new round. The sheet saves in your browser, so you can close the page and come back. For the full explanation with examples, read how scoring works.
