How you might use an array in your game:

Player[]  myPlayer = new Player[4];

for (int i = 0; i < 4 ; i++)
{
     System.out.println("What is your name player " + i + "?");
     name = myScreen.next();
     myPlayer[i].updateName(name);
}

Inside the game, you would set up other for loops and call the method with the player[index]
myPlayer[i].throwDice();
