An electric cribbage board wherein the score for each shown by the illumination of a respective one of a number of lightable indicator devices forming a respective "track" or "street". The board is arranged to illuminate two successive devices in each track, the leading device indicating the total game score, while the trailing device indicates the just preceding total score. Facilities are provided for displaying and therefore checking a hand count before it is added to the respective total score count for each player so as to light the appropriate indicator. The board avoids the need for mental computation as is required with completely manual cribbage boards, or known electro-mechanical cribbage boards, and thereby assists in eliminating incorrect hand and total score counts during playing of the card game of cribbage.
