Games can be played off the grid using wifi or bluetooth
This needs signing the games:
- When users sign in, their device gets a game signing key
- After a rated game is played offline, a package is created containing: players, game data, timestamp
- This is signed by both devices using their game signing key and sent to the other one.
- Within 7 days, the game can be uploaded to the server
One problem is that you have to trust the other party that they have signed the game with the correct key
