  • You are first prompted to enter number of players (1-10).
  • You then set the total game time in mm:ss.
  • You are then prompted for max round time. For example: you want to play scrabble for maximum of 15 minutes each, but each round shall only take maximum of one minute..
  • Done. Player 1 starts in paused mode. So press play top start.

While playing

You will see the number of the current player. The time below is the time remaining of the round (and possible an extra time of the total time left).
