Problem / motivation

Players only interact by checking cells; there is no lightweight way to react.

Proposed solution

  • Emoji reactions broadcast over Socket.io, shown briefly on the board (rate-limited server-side).
  • Show who is currently watching (presence is already tracked in cardRooms in server.js).

Alternatives considered

None.
