- Click + Add object, then New, then High scores. Name it Best.
- Set How many names to 5.

Add the score to the table asks for a name. Type one in, or give it Text("Name box") to use what the player typed in a Text box. Wipe the table empties it, for a fresh start.
Where the scores live
The table is saved on this Mac, under the game's name. A shared web page keeps its own table in the browser that plays it. Renaming the game starts a new, empty table. See Where high scores are kept.
