Where the waiting games are

Lead: The eight games are live, but the only way in is a Play button that shows while a bot works. No menu or page opens them.

A

How to play now

Quick replies never show the button. The switch is Settings → Appearance → Background → Waiting games. It is on by default.

B

Why you could not find them

Where | What is there | Opens a game?Message box, bot working over 5 s | Play button | okMessage box, bot idle | Nothing | noSettings | On/off switch only | noRail, menus, home | Nothing | no

C

Decision: add a button that always works

Proposed change: a Play button that works when no bot is busy, on Desktop, the phone layout, the PWA and the iPhone app. I did not build it. Free disk is 40 GB and the workspace rule stops new worktrees under 50 GB.
