GamesA companion for board game night
Keep it simple — just play. We keep score.
GamesBook is a tool made by passionate board gamers for fellow players. It's an attempt to find the formula for the perfect game session in a world of endlessly varied rules. No matter how complex a game's turn is to describe, to us it's just math.
In development — join the list below to hear when it launches.
Board games are great. Paperwork isn't.
- 1Checking the rules every turn to work out what this move scores based on the ones before it.
- 2Hunting for paper and a pen that actually writes, mixing up score sheets and forgetting to jot things down in the heat of the game.
- 3Realizing at the end of the game that everyone got a different tally — and a different winner.
- 4Play it, forget it. What did we play last week? How many times? Remember that summer get-together? Yeah, me neither…
One app, built around how each game actually works
GamesBook doesn't treat every title the same. Rules, inputs, round counts and scoring formulas are all set up per game, so the app behaves the way that specific rulebook does.
Rules on the board
Pick a game from the catalog and instantly see how progress works in it: how many people can play, which parameters you can change, and which ones update on their own.
The math is done for you
Enter what happened on a turn. The server works out the result using that exact game's scoring rules, so nobody re-adds a column by hand.
Fields that fit the game
Input forms, round counts, and validation are configured for each title individually — so you only ever enter values that make sense for it.
Every match remembered
Every session is saved automatically: final scores, round-by-round history, and simple analytics across all the games you play offline.
What it looks like at the table
Three screens from a typical session — choosing a game, starting a match, and scoring after every turn.
