Im playing this game with my friends but new players are having hard times to get used to the game, can you give more languages? also i can help for the turkish language. This game is kinda popular in turkey so it would be good.

Thanks for the post! I'm tagging this as an enhancement for now, as I'd definitely be interested in adding multi-language support but also I don't have a lot of experience with it.

The Secret Hitler Online interface would need a pretty large refactor to even begin to allow for translation, as most strings are hard-coded (eep!). I'll look into what changes would need to be made to the source code and what translation platforms are out there; I'm currently considering Crowdin, which allows for public contributions.

If anyone else is interested, could you please comment on this thread or add a reaction?

You can put a language select box. And with javascript, you can replace all the strings in the content of the website (with a simple json etc.). It is not a stable method to do it but it would work and can be done easily. (I do not know how does react works it might be incompatible)
