This is not a Rook game. Rook Scorecard is a simple application that lets you keep track of your Rook game scores without paper. Always know who the next dealer is, what the bids and trump were, and who is winning.
First select the players from your contacts, selected a dealer and begin bidding and playing a real-world game of Rook only assisted by technology.

Using the application
Selecting Players
Tap the North, East, South, West buttons to bring up your list of iPhone contacts, select the players. The Play button will appear on the navigation bar, click it to select the first dealer. Tap the dealer.
Bidding
Tap Place Bids. Bidding starts with the player to the left of the dealer and proceeds clockwise. Tap the number of points that player wishes to take. Then the next, the next, and the next. Once three players have passed the bid is accepted for the bid winning team, the trump is then asked for just for a reference.
Scoring
When the hand is over, tap Score Hand. You will be asked how many points the bid winning team received, the rest goes to the other team.
Additions in RookSC 1.1
Two options have been added. First, adds the ability to score 1's worth 15 points, and second, the ability to play with the 'baby bird.' When using the ones the minimum bid is 85 and max is 180. When using the baby bird there are 20 extra points.
The ability to undo previous actions has been added. Undoing scoring and bidding are separate, so undoing twice will undo a complete hand.
