  4. The number of stars in the game represents the number of energies you have (for an attack you need an energy).
  5. Its a turn based game and the green bench represents that player's turn.
  6. In the beginning both players have to choose an active monster who will face off against the enemy's monster. - "number x active"

TO DO

  1. Integrate IBM Watson Assistant for help with the game.
  2. Allow player 1 and 2 to input an unique number to add it to the pubnub channels so that multiple players can play using the same pubunb account.
