I agree, especially because of the type of game this is.

I'd like infinite high scores, personally, and to see some other stats. The highest scores are interesting as far as they go, but as others have noted, chance has a lot to do with success. However the player's caution or recklessness plays a major part in the chances of getting a high score verus surviving at all. So I would love to be able to get some stats on what my average score per game was, and/or a score graph, showing progress over time.

Without such stats, the high scores may indicate having played the game a huge number of times taking crazy risks and dying 95% of the time, or it might show the same scores for a player who is very skilled and survives 80% of the time.

The compulsive, puzzle-solving, and risk-balancing nature of the game mean it could really benefit from more records and statistics. Sure, your highest score is really impressive, but what's your average score, and what's your survival rate??? No way to tell without more records and/or statistics. With them, there would be more goals to go for besides just the high score. Without them, after the top ten scores are pretty high, playing a good but not great game just gets forgotten.
