Oh Hell Scorekeeper

iPhone / Jeux

Oh Hell Scorekeeper is a FREE app designed to make keeping score for a game of Oh Hell – with 3-7 players – easier than ever before. It includes options for many different variations of play, including:

- Number of cards
- Card count progression (up/down/both)
- Scoring

It’s also designed to help newcomers learn the game, with easy-access help at every stage of the game, from entering player names to dealing, bidding and scoring. Help is easily enabled or disabled on each screen.

Oh Hell is a game played under many different names – Wikipedia lists over 70. Some of the more popular are Nomination Whist, Up and Down the River, Oh Pshaw, Oh Heck, Swing 13, Riki Tiki, La Podrida, and many more. There are many variations to the gameplay, and I’ve included the ability to select many of these in this app, under “Options”. If you need another option not already included in order to play the game your favorite way, please email me (nancy@gendertalk.com) and I’ll do my best to update the app with options needed to play it your way.
