We had no idea if we were making enough points or not til the end game

In trick taking games you have to count points by yourself. It is not allowed to count points in your tricks in mid of the hand. Public information is the number of tricks every player made. This numbers are shown in the user interface.
If players do not count the points during the game, they need to estimate the points that are in these tricks, which will be possible approximately:
- In average a card is worth 1 point.
- As players avoid to give points to the other team if possible, a rule of thumb is the following for 5 player games:
- In average there are 5 points in each trick.
- In Chief's team you should only expect 4 to 4.5 points in average.
- If you lead a trick with a 9 you should not expect more then 3 points if the coulor was not played before.
These rules of thumb can also be applied during bid phase, if you think to raise your bid or not.

It would be possible to implement an option that shows how many triangles each side has taken at each point in the hand. There are a number of BGA games that provide options allowing hidden trackable information to be either hidden or revealed, and significant numbers of players historically prefer each option. The developers clearly prefer hidden trackable information to remain hidden, but players who favor the other approach are likely to write the information down on paper or via electronic means as they play, slowing the game down.

In turn based game it is near impossible to remember the number of points taken. the ability to track this, simiar to what the crew has done with showing who has completed what mission, would make this game much more appealing for turn based play.
