What’s New AI Improvements * Improved the Beginner AI’s basic offense and defense to reduce random-looking moves and create a more natural experience for new players. Local Multiplayer Updates * Added per-move timers with Unlimited, 15-second, and 60-second options. * Improved turn handoff and rapid-tap protection to reduce accidental and consecutive moves. * Redesigned the countdown display to make the active turn and remaining time easier to see. * Fixed an issue where a full board did not end correctly; draws are now handled properly. Match History and Replays * Restored and improved local multiplayer match history and game replays. * Timed-out matches now show the reason at the end of the replay. * Refined match history labels and replay presentation. Experience and Stability * Fixed an issue where some local multiplayer records could be removed incorrectly. * Improved board interaction and reduced unnecessary layout updates. Thank you for your support. Take a quiet moment and enjoy another game.
