Keep score in Mille Bornes, all the way to 5,000

At the end of each round, each team scores one point per kilometer laid in front of it, 100 points per safety laid, 300 more if it has all 4 safeties, and 300 more per coup fourré. The team that completed the trip, exactly 1,000 kilometers, adds 400 points, and a team scores 500 more if the other one traveled no distance at all (the shutout). Points add up from round to round: the first team to 5,000 wins. In the example, the Eagles score 1,900 points in the last round and finish on 5,100.

When an opponent plays a hazard on you and you hold the safety that matches it, you can lay it down at once, even if it's not your turn, calling “Coup fourré!”. The hazard is canceled, you lay the safety sideways so everyone can tell, you draw to fill your hand, then you draw again and play: the players seated between the attacker and you lose their turn. When you count, the safety is worth 100 points and the coup fourré 300 more, so 400. A safety laid on your own turn is only worth 100.

Yes: the trip ends at exactly 1,000 kilometers, and you can't play a distance card that would take you past it. At 950 kilometers, for example, the 75, 100 and 200 are useless: you need a 50, or two 25s. A team can't play more than two 200s in a round, and under a Speed Limit, only 25s and 50s are allowed. In the example, the Eagles have already played their two 200s and finish with a 25, from 975 to 1,000.

Everyone keeps playing the cards in their hand until nobody can play anymore. If a team still reaches 1,000, it scores the trip completed; otherwise, nobody scores those 400 points, and each team counts its kilometers and safeties. Rulebooks differ here: Dujardin's 2024 rules give the round, and the winner's 400 points, to whoever traveled the farthest; the 2025 rules stop the race as soon as the draw pile has no distance cards left, and the closest to 1,000 wins. Agree on it with your table before you start.

In the classic rules, with two or three players, or with six in three teams of two, the trip is only 700 kilometers. Whoever gets there first can end the round, or call an extension: the trip goes up to 1,000 kilometers, and whoever called the extension scores 200 more points if they reach 1,000 first. Dujardin's recent rulebooks no longer mention it. Teamzy's help doesn't count it: if you play it, add its 200 points to the round total you type.

No. Teamzy follows the classic scoring, the one in the table above. Many older rules add 300 points for a trip completed without a 200 card (the safe trip), and 300 for a trip completed after the draw pile is empty (the delayed action). Dujardin's 2024 rulebook, which offers scoring up to 5,000 as a variant, gives nothing for all 4 safeties, 400 points to the winner of the round, 200 for a win without a 200, and 500 to all the others when a player laid no distance card. In the classic rules, the 500-point shutout only goes to the team that completes the trip before the other has laid a single distance card. Pick your rules before you start; in Teamzy, add those bonuses to the round total you type.

No: in the 2025 rulebook, the first to reach exactly 1,000 wins, with no scoring. If the draw pile runs out of distance cards first, the closest to 1,000 wins. A coup fourré earns no points there: it cancels the hazard and lets you draw and play again. For a real match over several rounds, keep score as shown here, up to 5,000: Teamzy keeps every round and ends the match at the right moment.

The classic rules are for four, in two teams of two; with two or three, each player plays alone, and with six, in three teams of two. Dujardin's recent rulebooks have everyone play alone from 2 to 4 players, and in teams of two up to 8. In Teamzy, Mille Bornes is played by 2 to 6 players, in two teams by default: you can change the number of teams in the game's settings, and the app draws the teams for you.
