Questions
I closed my browser by mistake. Is the game lost?
No. Sign in again and open New Game. The Live game in progress banner offers Resume game, and History shows the game with a Resume button.
Do players need to join again after I switch devices?
No. Taking over moves the host controls and the join code to the new device. The phones stay in their teams.
Can two devices host the same game at once?
No. Only one device controls a game. The device that took over controls it. The other device keeps its game screen running, and its host panel waits until you click Take control back.
