Here are some more details about the new features you can experience:
1. The game now uses the same technology as the majority of our games such as Bingo, CardParty and RoyalDice. This means it now works on even more devices, bringing you more opponents. This new technology also means the game is faster, smoother and loads faster.
2.We added a sharp, new navigation bar at the top of the page showing your current Coin balance, level progression, online friends and provides a way to easily change rooms within Rummy.
This button will currently direct you to the roomlist you're all used to, while our team of developers is working on a brand new in-game roomlist. The new roomlist will enable you to jump rooms without ever leaving Rummy, making for a quicker & easier transition!
3. We've also redesigned the chat. Although it looks different, it's actually as big as you're used to. We've simply moved the private messages you used to receive on the right hand side into something we call Chat Heads. They're simply buttons that allow you to navigate between private conversations. They will pop up the moment you start a private conversation or when you receive a private message.
4. Open a private conversation by clicking that person’s Chat Head. Their nickname will always appear above the conversation so you can make sure you’re in a private message or not. To return to the room chat, just click the three-people icon on top of the tab.
If you're not friends yet with somebody yet, the 'add friend' button will appear behind their player name, so you can add them easily from this screen. Alternatively, you can add them through the friendlist or when hovering over their player names in the lobby, as you always could.
5. The smiley menu and the chat channels also got a redesign, as they were very due for a make-over. We're always adding seasonal and event smileys, so keep an eye out for them!
6. Have you ever experienced typing a very long sentence and halfway through realized you made a mistake? In the previous version you couldn't see all the chat that you were typing in the input field. In this updated version, the input field enlarges if you type more than a single sentence. Nice!
7. You might wonder where you can change your online status in this new version. No worries, it's still there – we’ve just moved it to another location. You simply have to click your avatar in the navigation bar to alter your status to your liking.
We hope you enjoy these cool, new updates as much as we do. Have fun and please let us know what you think!
