I love the background music though. ### 2/5 — Fix it!!! *2026-03-30, version 5.0.0* Sooo many glitches!!!! ### 4/5 — Please do this *2026-03-15, version 5.0.0* So this is a very fun game! But when it pauses the game and says it needs to connect the time you have still gets wasted. I just was playing and a lot of my time was spent. Maybe you could have it pause when you’re connecting? Anyways. Amazing game, would highly recommend! ### 4/5 — ID?? *2026-02-14, version 4.1.0* How can I easily find the ID of the person I want to add friend? ### 4/5 — Add Mancala *2026-01-22, version 4.1.0* Great game and the matchmaking is very well done.
