How are my stats and progress saved?

Your record starts building from the first hand you play. The only decision is whether it lives on one device or follows you across all of them.

Quick answer: As a guest, your stats save automatically in your browser's local storage, tracked separately for every game and mode - no signup needed. An optional Google sign-in adds cross-device syncing, so your wins and records follow you between phone, tablet and computer.

Guest saving

Play as a guest and your win counts, streaks and records are stored in your browser's local storage, kept separately for each game and mode - your All Fives record to 100 doesn't blur into your race to 250, and your Block stats stand on their own. Close the tab, come back next week, and it's all still there. The catch: it lives on that one device, and clearing browser data erases it.

Syncing with an account

The optional Google sign-in backs your stats up and syncs them across every device you use, and it keeps a permanent name on the leaderboard and the daily boards. If you split your play between a phone and a laptop, that's the whole case for signing in - one record instead of two halves, as do I need an account? covers.

Privacy and portability

Guest stats never leave your browser, and no personal data is needed to play. Because everything runs client-side, your progress even keeps recording while you're offline, syncing when you reconnect. Signing in is purely for convenience - never a requirement.
