HELLO EVERYONE! A NEW UPDATE of *board* is now released!
Changelog:

* Improved reconnection reliability and general server responsiveness during online games.
* Fixed a crash that could occur when a malformed network message was received.
* Fixed voice chat not working correctly in Serpents & Stairs.
## Games
* added new games, Hokm and Rummy. Thanks @amir for suggesting and testing these games!
* Added team vs. team play in Ludo, and fixed a bug where a match could start with every player on the same team.

* Added graphics for custom boards in Ludo and Serpents & Stairs, plus a customizable color menu in visual settings.

* Added a way to review recently spoken messages/history across all games.
## Account & Friends
