You enjoy playing games with your friends irl? You want to keep track of your scores and analyze them? Then GamesBook is the right place for you.
GamesBook is a simple and free notebook for game results. It allows you to save, share and analyize games you play with friends. You can create a shared group account for up to 10 players, to then add logs with the results of the games you played with the group. Now you have access to all of the group's games and analytics in GamesBook to never lose track of scores again.
Register a group account to start with GamesBook (this takes only 2 minutes and not even an email address).
A group of up to 10 players can share this account (you need at least 2 players, but can add more anytime).
If there is another group of people you play with it is recommended to make a separate group account (e.g. one group for the cards guys and one for the family).

First, choose a game you want to play and game it.
Then, make sure to log the results of your game in GamesBook.
Logs are a record or note of the game and its results.
Depending on the actual game you play, the information and moment you log will differ. Therefore GamesBook offers game modes.
Here are two examples:
⌑ If you do a 'Puzzle', you will simply puzzle it and measure the time it takes you to finish it. Afterwards, you log your time in GamesBook.
⌑ Say you play Scrabble. This is a round-based, multiplayer game. You can have GamesBook open while you play and enter the points after each round or after a playthrough - you decide. Once you are done, you save the log of the Scrabble session. The game mode for this is 'Rounds'.

GamesBook offers analytics for your group. All players can login and revisit the groups' logged games and results. You can see how the players have performed, developed their gameplay or simply remember the fun you've had playing together.
Btw ... GamesBook is a Data Science project, so this will be a core feature to check out.
Choose a mode to explore:
Play round-based games within your group. In each round, you can enter points for each player. The winner is the player with the most points over all rounds. You can use this mode for all kinds of games. Either you note down rounds (as in scrabble) or the results of multiple games you want to combine, e.g. cards or table tennis.
This game mode is not yet available. Roll the dice and as in the classic achieve points in different categories. You need 5 Dice. The acitve player can reroll twice. Each time you roll the dice, you can choose which dice you want to keep. You can not reroll with those anymore. To end your turn you have to choose a combination and gain the points. The winner is the player with most points in total.
Challenge your puzzle skills: finish a puzzle tracking the time you need to finish it. You can then log your time in GamesBook in a easy way. Just add the puzzle once and then save logs each time you finish it. After a view entries you will be able to explore your stats and compare within your group.
