What is it?

Score Counter is a device meant to be used for keeping the score for up to four players when playing board games like Scrabble etc. The numbers of players is selectable through the settings menu and names, up to ten characters long can be entered for each player.

Why did you make it?

While playing scrabble one evening I thought, there must be another way to keep the score except paper and pen. I looked around the internet and found some smart phone app, but I dislike using a phone for that, it would lock etc. and I don't like "living in my phone" anyway. Then the idea came to me, I can build one.
