Arduino game

Hi everybody, I’am a newbie with my first Arduino project. I want to make a 2 player game, where the player who fastest can activate a pushbutton 30 times is the Winner. There should also be 6 LED’s to indicate the Progress for each player. The Winner will be saluted with a blinking LED effect, Any suggestion on how to do this… Best regards

Can I assume there’s also some common start signal, perhaps the aforementioned LEDs do something ? Then is this just a race to see who can “whack-a-mole” 30x the first or is there some trigger signal and what’s measured is the quickest time from trigger to whack, 30x ? How many $s do you wish to spend on this ? What sort of LEDs, in what physical arrangement, are you thinking of ? I ask because your 12 LEDs plus 2 inputs are more I/O than a straight usage would allow on an Uno. You need to use some LED “driver”, either a true LED driver IC, or a simple shift register approach or a “smart” LED, like a ws2812 type. The latter generally come mounted on a semi-flexible strip, spaced so many mm apart. What type of Arduino are you planning to use ? How will you power this game, batteries or wallwart or ??
