### 5/5 — L’awalé c’est trop génial

*2019-09-18, version 4.4.3*

J’ai découvert chez une amie. On y a joué toute la nuit de quoi rapprocher deux âmes en peine. Je m’y suis donc pris de passion. A la découverte de cette application, mon cœur de joie et de nostalgie. Je vous remercie Mr Ghislain d’avoir développer ce jeu aux multiples facettes. Au plaisir de vous rencontrer lors d’une partie. 
Il faudrait un système de compte et de chat durant la partie. Des affinités pourront ainsi se créer. 
LA GROSSE BISE
