Unscoped (possible future work)
- Add an "Undo" button
- Work on "security" type features such as ensuring that players cannot request actions on behalf of others
- Keep track of player statistics throughout the game and present these (such as in a graph) at the end of the game
- Add a "help" button that pulls up the rulebook
- Change dice to have dots rather than numbers
- When activating cards, the frontend should indicate which dice are valid to select (gray out invalid choices)
- Add a server-side logging framework
