REMOTE GAMES Gameplay: * Randomly, players are ordered. A bar on the botttom of the players' screens informs the players' whos turn it is. On the right of the screen the players tiles and their current score is displayed. * When a player takes their turn, if they form a valid word, it will be sent to all other players. They will then be assigned new letters so that they have seven in total. * If a player skips all other players are told and their forfeit move counter is incremented. If they skip twice, the player is out of the game and the server informs all of the players of this. * If a player does not take their turn within five minutes, they forfeit their turn. * If a players machine does not get a message or update from the server in eight minutes, it can be assumed that the connection to the server has been lost and so the players game will end. End of Game: * When a player has taken their turn and there are not enough tiles to replenish their rack, as the bag is empty, the game ends. Final scores are calculated and presented on all players' machines. * A dialog will appear asking the player on the same machine as the server if they want to play anoter game. If they answer 'yes' the following point happens, else, the final board is displayed on all of the players' machines. * A dialog will appear asking all of the players (excluding the player playing on the same machine as the server) if they want to play another game. If they answer 'yes', they will be taken back to the lobby. If they answer 'no', they will be taken back to the board in its final state. |
