Which game? Most of them are scored by the number of cards played off.

See my reply to your other question. From the FAQ:

How are Scorpion, Maze, Gaps, and Addiction scored?
The score is based on the lengths of the runs of cards of the same suit. Here's a table that explains it:
Number of cards in a run Resulting score
13 13
12 11
11 9
10 7
9 6
8 5
7 4
6 3
5 2
4 1
3 0
2 0
1 0
The max is 13 so that a complete game's score is 52, like the foundation based games. It's not linear so that it rewards games with longer runs. We didn't want someone with a run of 6 and a run of 7 to score the same as someone with a run of 13 (since the 13 was probably harder to achieve).
