SURFACE.MOBILE.GAME.PASS-AND-PLAYSummary
The board for two players on one phone, face to face.

Why it is drawn this way
Black's strip is upside down. The phone lies between the players. Each reads their own clock and captures the right way up.
The board does not turn in this layout. A board that spins after every move is hard to follow for two people looking at it from opposite sides. The turning board is the other option in setup-friend.
No thinking state. Nobody is computing.
The banner stays at the bottom. It is at White's edge. That is a cost to the player on that side, and it is recorded here so it is a decision and not an accident.
