Is there a plan to make this playable solo ?

Would it be possible to have a button that allows the active player to request a special card be played before their turn continues? Similar to the "make me inactive" button in concept but it sends the timer to players with specials who can then decline to use the special. just something to help out with an issue I find myself in often of not checking on games if the timer doesn't tell me to.

Yes I agree. In turn based it's especially difficult. I ended up messaging the person to play their special card, but a notify button would be much easier.
