Report history
When playing djambi turn-based, you have to review the game log to see the previous moves. The replay feature is helpful but, as previously reported, is flaky and may not be working. These limitations hurt the usability and make the turns take longer, particularly when playing several games.
SUGGESTION
1. The piece each other player last moved should be highlighted (a colored square on the board) with the color of the player who moved it. E.g. the piece the blue player moved has a blue square around it.
2. If the player also moved an opponent's piece (diplomat) or moved/placed a corpse, then that piece also has the same highlight.
SECONDARY SUGGESTION
3. Maze: if a player has moved more than once since you're last turn, then it would be ideal to highlight all affected pieces/corpses. However, this is secondary value, so could be backlogged.
PRECEDENT
Several other games provide some information on the board so you know what your opponent's did in the last turn. Carcasonne, however, is the best example for this case.
This is now available as a colored "glow" around the pieces last moved by each player.
