Detailed description
-
• Please copy/paste the error message you see on your screen, if applicable.
Lobby is broken for word games like Decrypto, Hardback, etc. which have a language dependency.
EVERY table should have a game option "Language" but somehow many do not have this option. Tables are getting created without the language option set. Without it, anyone can see and join the table in another language.
See here, I joined some French game by mistake. It should be impossible. I should be prohibited from joining the game because French isn't listed in my profile languages. Also, in should have seen "Francais" in the lobby before joining (absolutely I did not).
