Considerations

For the game to be played in multiplayer mode, both tablets need to be connected to the internet (wifi or data). Without internet connection, only single mode will be available.
If you are behind a firewall, open port 6568 (allowing socket and http services).
Internet connection should be stable. During game play, it's not allowed to change among wifi connections.
Do not lock the Tango Tablet while game play. This will make the game crash.
