Won’t connect. Waste of time

Doesn’t save

Played a chapter with friends, it didn’t save any of it, wasted an hour of my time

Doesn’t work. Just endlessly connecting without ever connecting. Literally no one’s app worked.

Would have loved to join the game as an additional player but the app did not allow it.
