A really fun, fiercely competitive family reading league · designed & played by the Ordoñez family · made by Dunosis
The premise

Three steps. One winner. No mercy.

A reading habit, dressed up as a grudge match. The reading is real even when the trash talk isn't.

1
Read
Open a book

Any book, any genre. Paper, e-ink, audio — it all counts. The only rule is that pages actually turn.

2
Log
Put it on the board

Tap the dock, drop your page count, flag a finished book. Points land instantly and the bars start moving.

3
Climb
Take the crown

Overtake a sibling and the whole family hears about it. The house AI never sleeps, and it has no loyalty.

The scoring

Finish it to score. Hard books pay more.

Nothing counts until you mark a book complete. Then it's ten points times the book's complexity, plus a bonus for length.

10×

Base haul

Finish a book and bank 10 points × its complexity multiplier. Unfinished books score nothing — completion is the whole point.

+.1/10 pg

Length bonus

On top of the base, every 10 pages adds 0.1 points. A 500-page book tacks on a clean +5.

+.5each

Brainy, classic, or bold

Non-fiction, a pre-1950 classic, or a book in any language other than English each add +0.5 to your multiplier.

+1big books

Doorstops

Page count lifts the multiplier too: +0.25 past 300 pages, +0.5 past 500, +1.0 past 1,000. It all stacks to a ×3.0 cap.

Worked example · the max
42
An epic 1,200-page pre-1950 classic
10 × complexity (×3.0) = +30
1,200 pages ÷ 10 × 0.1 = +12
multiplier capped at ×3.0 Points = (10 × complexity) + (pages ÷ 10 × 0.1)

Your next chapter is one tap away. Somebody's already reading.

No finish line · just the next page, and a lead worth chasing
