Norwegian language
This game is fun for seniors, including old Scandinavians. It would be really nice if Norwegian, Danish or Swedish was added (old Scandinavians are able to read all of them well).

Yo, this is a VERY good point. This is one of those games where it's actually SUPER IMPORTANT to get as many languages supported as you possibly can, since the game appeals to sooooooooooo many different ages and other demographics of player. Like, especially people who don't play a lot of video games, normally, but will be interested in card games.

While plenty of older people are bilingual/multilingual, it's also a general truth that older people simply had less opportunities to see media from anywhere outside their own region.

On the oither hand, I am fully aware of how incredibly difficult translations must be for this game, in particular. You have to get all these very specific and picky game mechanic descriptions translated without errors, first of all. That isn't easy, and any mistranslations could be SO FRUSTRATING to players.

Secondly the names of all the jokers and effect cards would have to be redone, and it's another level of difficulty, to bring the correct flavor and theme across all languages.

It's a hard thing to do, is what I'm saying.

I agree, Scandinavian language support would be greatly appreciated! It would definitely greatly increase the availability to seniors.
