The interface seems perfect to us. The access screen places us in the center of the game. Here we have at hand all the games that we are playing and those that we have finished. They belong to the “GAMES” menu located at the bottom left of the screen. To start a game, we must press the button characterized by a "+" that is in the upper right part.
