Some games, such as Codenames and QwiqWit, support more than one language. For people who are not native speakers of English, it seems like it would be helpful to be able to show only games in languages that they understand.

A first step towards this is perhaps to gather the supported languages and show them on the info page for each game.

There is more than one level here: the UI language might be different than the "game" language. For example in Insider you can choose to play with words in Japanese, but the UI is still in English. The game might still be useful for those people who speak Japanese but don't speak English:

  1. They are redirected from Rocket Crab, so their interaction with the game site is reduced.
  2. They are probably talking to the other players, who can make the game playable.

Also, you might also use some language packs so that other might provide translations to at least rocketcrab ui.
