+# 🎮 Arcade Room System - Complete Technical Plan
+
+**Date:** 2025-01-06
+**Status:** Ready for Implementation
+
+## Executive Summary
+
+Transform the current singleton arcade session into a multi-room system where users can create, manage, and share public game rooms. Rooms are URL-addressable, support guest users, have configurable TTL, and give creators full moderation control.
+
+---
+
+## 1. Core Requirements
+
+### Room Features
+- ✅ **Public by default** - All rooms visible in public lobby
+- ✅ **No capacity limits** - Unlimited players per room
+- ✅ **Configurable TTL** - Rooms expire based on inactivity (similar to existing session TTL)
+- ✅ **URL-addressable** - Direct links to join rooms (`/arcade/rooms/{roomId}`)
+- ✅ **Guest access** - Unauthenticated users can join with temp guest IDs
+- ✅ **Anyone can create** - No authentication required to create rooms
+- ✅ **Creator moderation** - Only room creator can kick, lock, or delete room
+
+---
+
+## 2. Database Schema
+
+### New Tables
+
+```typescript
+// arcade_rooms table
+interface ArcadeRoom {
+  id: string                    // UUID - primary key
+  code: string                  // 6-char join code (e.g., "ABC123") - unique
+  name: string                  // User-defined room name (max 50 chars)
+
+  // Creator info
+  createdBy: string             // User/guest ID of creator

+```
+
+### Indexes
+```sql
+CREATE INDEX idx_rooms_code ON arcade_rooms(code);
+CREATE INDEX idx_rooms_status ON arcade_rooms(status);
+CREATE INDEX idx_rooms_last_activity ON arcade_rooms(lastActivity);
+CREATE INDEX idx_room_members_room_id ON room_members(roomId);
+CREATE INDEX idx_room_members_user_id ON room_members(userId);
+CREATE INDEX idx_room_members_online ON room_members(isOnline) WHERE isOnline = true;

+
+---
+
+## 4. WebSocket Protocol
+
+### Socket.IO Room Namespacing
+
+```typescript
+// Join room's socket.io room
+socket.emit('join-room', {
+  roomId: string
+  userId: string

+})
+```
+
+### Server → Client Events (room-scoped broadcasts)
+
+```typescript
+// Room state changes
+socket.on('room-updated', {
+  room: ArcadeRoom
+})
+
+// Member events
+socket.on('member-joined', {
+  member: RoomMember
+  memberCount: number
+})
+
+socket.on('member-left', {
+  userId: string
+  memberCount: number
+})
+
+socket.on('member-kicked', {
+  kickedUserId: string
+  reason: string
+})
+
+socket.on('members-updated', {
+  members: RoomMember[]
+})
+
+// Game session events
+socket.on('game-starting', {
+  sessionId: string
+  activePlayers: string[]
+})
+
+socket.on('game-ended', {
+  results: any
+})
+
+// Room lifecycle
+socket.on('room-locked', {
+  isLocked: boolean
+})
+
+socket.on('room-deleted', {
+  reason: string
+})
+
+// Existing game moves (now room-scoped)
+socket.on('game-move', { roomId, userId, move })
+socket.on('move-accepted', { roomId, gameState, version })
+socket.on('move-rejected', { roomId, error })
+```
+
+---
+
+## 5. URL Structure & Routing
+
+### New Routes
+
+```typescript
+/arcade/rooms                           // Public room lobby (list all rooms)
+/arcade/rooms/create                    // Create room modal/page
+/arcade/rooms/:roomId                   // Room lobby (pre-game)
+/arcade/rooms/:roomId/matching          // Game with room context
+/arcade/rooms/:roomId/complement-race   // Another game
+/arcade/join/:code                      // Short link: redirects to room
+
+// Existing routes (backward compatible)
+/arcade                                 // My rooms + quick play
+/arcade/matching                        // Solo play (no room)
+```
+
+### Navigation Flow
+
+```
+User Journey A: Create Room
+1. /arcade → Click "Create Room"
+2. /arcade/rooms/create → Fill form, submit
+3. /arcade/rooms/{roomId} → Room lobby, share link
+4. Click "Start Game" → /arcade/rooms/{roomId}/matching
+
+User Journey B: Join via Link
+1. Receive link: example.com/arcade/rooms/{roomId}
+2. Opens lobby, automatically joins
+3. Wait for game start or click ready
+
+User Journey C: Join via Code

+
+### Socket Server Updates
+
+```typescript
+// socket-server.ts modifications
+
+io.on('connection', (socket) => {
+
+  // Join room (socket.io namespace)
+  socket.on('join-room', async ({ roomId, userId }) => {
+    // Validate membership
+    const member = await getRoomMember(roomId, userId)
+    if (!member) {
+      socket.emit('room-error', { error: 'Not a room member' })
+      return
+    }
+
+    // Join socket.io room
+    socket.join(`room:${roomId}`)
+
+    // Update presence
+    await updateMemberPresence(roomId, userId, true)
+
+    // Broadcast to room
+    io.to(`room:${roomId}`).emit('member-joined', { member })
+
+    // Send current state
+    const room = await getRoomById(roomId)
+    const members = await getRoomMembers(roomId)
+    socket.emit('room-state', { room, members })
+  })
+
+  // Leave room
+  socket.on('leave-room', async ({ roomId, userId }) => {
+    socket.leave(`room:${roomId}`)
+    await updateMemberPresence(roomId, userId, false)
+    io.to(`room:${roomId}`).emit('member-left', { userId })
+  })
+
+  // Game moves (room-scoped)

+    if (!member) return
+
+    // Apply move to room's session
+    const result = await applyGameMove(userId, move, roomId)
+
+    if (result.success) {
+      // Broadcast to all room members
+      io.to(`room:${roomId}`).emit('move-accepted', {
+        gameState: result.session.gameState,
+        version: result.session.version,
+        move
+      })
+    }
+  })
+
+  // Disconnect handling
+  socket.on('disconnect', () => {
+    // Update presence for all rooms user was in
+    updateAllUserPresence(userId, false)
+  })
+})
+```
+
+---
+
+## 9. Guest User System
+
+### Guest ID Generation
+
+```typescript
+// /src/lib/guest-id.ts
+
+export function generateGuestId(): string {
+  // Format: guest_{timestamp}_{random}
+  // Example: guest_1704556800000_a3f2e1
+  const timestamp = Date.now()
+  const random = Math.random().toString(36).substring(2, 8)
+  return `guest_${timestamp}_${random}`
+}
+
+export function isGuestId(userId: string): boolean {
+  return userId.startsWith('guest_')
+}
+
+export function getGuestDisplayName(guestId: string): string {
+  // Generate friendly name like "Guest 1234"
+  const hash = guestId.split('_')[2]
+  const num = parseInt(hash, 36) % 10000
+  return `Guest ${num}`
+}
+```
+
+### Guest Session Storage
+
+```typescript
+// Store guest ID in localStorage
+const GUEST_ID_KEY = 'soroban_guest_id'
+
+export function getOrCreateGuestId(): string {
+  let guestId = localStorage.getItem(GUEST_ID_KEY)
+  if (!guestId) {
+    guestId = generateGuestId()
+    localStorage.setItem(GUEST_ID_KEY, guestId)
+  }
+  return guestId
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+## 10. TTL Implementation
+
+### Reuse Existing Session TTL Pattern
+
+```typescript
+// room-ttl.ts
+
+const DEFAULT_ROOM_TTL_MINUTES = 60
+
+// Cleanup job (run every 5 minutes)
+setInterval(async () => {
+  await cleanupExpiredRooms()
+}, 5 * 60 * 1000)
+
+async function cleanupExpiredRooms() {
+  const now = new Date()
+
+  // Find expired rooms
+  const expiredRooms = await db.query(`
+    SELECT id FROM arcade_rooms
+    WHERE status != 'playing'
+    AND lastActivity < NOW() - INTERVAL '1 minute' * ttlMinutes
+  `)
+
+  for (const room of expiredRooms) {
+    // Notify members
+    io.to(`room:${room.id}`).emit('room-deleted', {
+      reason: 'Room expired due to inactivity'

+## 11. Room Code Generation
+
+```typescript
+// /src/lib/arcade/room-code.ts
+
+const CODE_CHARS = 'ABCDEFGHJKLMNPQRSTUVWXYZ23456789' // No ambiguous chars
+const CODE_LENGTH = 6
+
+export async function generateUniqueRoomCode(): Promise<string> {
+  let attempts = 0
+  const maxAttempts = 10
+
+  while (attempts < maxAttempts) {
+    const code = generateCode()
+    const existing = await getRoomByCode(code)
+    if (!existing) return code
+    attempts++
+  }
+
+  throw new Error('Failed to generate unique room code')
+}
+
+function generateCode(): string {
+  let code = ''
+  for (let i = 0; i < CODE_LENGTH; i++) {
+    const idx = Math.floor(Math.random() * CODE_CHARS.length)
+    code += CODE_CHARS[idx]
+  }
+  return code
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+## 12. Migration Plan
+
+### Phase 1: Database & API Foundation (Day 1-2)
+1. Create database tables and indexes
+2. Implement room-manager.ts and room-membership.ts
+3. Build API endpoints
+4. Add room-code generation
+5. Implement TTL cleanup
+6. Write unit tests
+
+### Phase 2: Socket.IO Integration (Day 2-3)
+1. Update socket-server.ts for room namespacing
+2. Implement room-scoped broadcasts
+3. Add presence tracking
+4. Update session-manager.ts for roomId support
+5. Test multi-user room sessions
+
+### Phase 3: Guest User System (Day 3)
+1. Implement guest ID generation
+2. Add guest user hooks
+3. Update auth flow for optional guest access
+4. Test guest join/leave flow
+
+### Phase 4: UI Components (Day 4-5)
+1. Build CreateRoomDialog
+2. Build RoomLobby component
+3. Build RoomLobbyBrowser (public lobby)
+4. Add RoomContextIndicator to nav
+5. Wire up all hooks
+
+### Phase 5: Routes & Navigation (Day 5-6)
+1. Create /arcade/rooms routes
+2. Update arcade home for room access
+3. Add room selector to nav
+4. Implement join-by-code flow
+5. Add share room functionality
+
+### Phase 6: Testing & Polish (Day 6-7)
+1. E2E tests for room creation/join
+2. Multi-user gameplay tests
+3. TTL and cleanup tests
+4. Guest user flow tests
+5. Performance testing
+6. UI polish and error states
+
+---
+
+## 13. Backward Compatibility
+
+### Solo Play Preserved
+- Existing `/arcade/matching` routes work unchanged
+- `roomId = null` for solo sessions
+- No breaking changes to `useArcadeSession`
+- All current functionality remains intact
+
+### Migration Strategy
+- Add `roomId` column to `arcade_sessions` (nullable)
+- Existing sessions have `roomId = null`
+- New room-based sessions have `roomId` populated
+- Session logic checks: `if (roomId) { /* room mode */ }`
+
+---
+
+## 14. Security Considerations
+
+### Room Access
+- ✅ Validate room membership before allowing game moves
+- ✅ Check `isCreator` flag for moderation actions
+- ✅ Prevent joining locked rooms
+- ✅ Rate limit room creation per IP/user
+- ✅ Sanitize room names (max length, no XSS)
+
+### Guest Users
+- ✅ Guest IDs stored client-side only (localStorage)
+- ✅ No sensitive data in guest profiles
+- ✅ Guest names sanitized
+- ✅ Rate limit guest actions
+- ✅ Allow authenticated users to "claim" guest activity
+
+### Room Moderation
+- ✅ Only creator can kick/lock/delete
+- ✅ Kicked users cannot rejoin unless creator unlocks
+- ✅ Room deletion clears all associated data
+- ✅ Audit log for moderation actions
+
+---
+
+## 15. Testing Strategy
+
+### Unit Tests
+- Room CRUD operations
+- Member join/leave logic
+- Code generation uniqueness
+- TTL cleanup
+- Guest ID generation
+- Access control validation
+
+### Integration Tests
+- Full room creation → join → play → leave flow
+- Multi-user concurrent gameplay
+- Socket.IO room broadcasts
+- Session synchronization across tabs
+- TTL expiration and cleanup
+
+### E2E Tests (Playwright)
+- Create room → share link → join as guest
+- Browse lobby → join room → play game
+- Creator kicks member
+- Room locks and unlock
+- Room TTL expiration
+
+### Load Tests
+- 100+ concurrent rooms
+- 10+ players per room
+- Rapid join/leave cycles
+- Socket.IO message throughput
+
+---
+
+## 16. Performance Optimizations
+
+### Database
+- Index on `room_members.roomId` for fast member queries
+- Index on `arcade_rooms.code` for quick code lookups
+- Index on `room_members.isOnline` for presence queries
+- Partition `arcade_rooms` by `createdAt` for TTL cleanup
+
+### Caching
+- Cache active room list (1-minute TTL)
+- Cache room member counts
+- Redis pub/sub for cross-server socket broadcasts (future)
+
+### Socket.IO
+- Use socket.io rooms for efficient broadcasting
+- Batch presence updates (debounce member online status)
+- Compress socket messages for large game states
+
+---
+
+## 17. Future Enhancements (Post-MVP)
+
+1. **Room Templates** - Save room configurations
+2. **Private Rooms** - Invite-only with passwords
+3. **Room Chat** - Text chat in lobby
+4. **Spectator Mode** - Watch games without playing
+5. **Room History** - Past games and stats
+6. **Tournament Brackets** - Multi-round competitions
+7. **Room Search** - Search by name/tag
+8. **Room Tags** - Categorize rooms
+9. **Friend Integration** - Invite friends directly
+10. **Room Analytics** - Popular times, average players, etc.
+
+---
+
+## 18. Open Questions / Decisions Needed
+
+1. **Room Name Validation** - Max length? Profanity filter?
+2. **Default TTL** - 60 minutes good default?
+3. **Code Reuse** - Can codes be reused after room expires?
+4. **Member Limit** - Even though unlimited, warn at certain threshold?
+5. **Lobby Pagination** - How many rooms to show initially?
+
+---
+
+## 19. Success Metrics
+
+- ✅ Users can create and join rooms
+- ✅ Guest users can participate without auth
+- ✅ Multi-user gameplay synchronized across all room members
+- ✅ Room creators can moderate effectively
+- ✅ Rooms expire correctly based on TTL
+- ✅ Public lobby shows active rooms
+- ✅ No regressions in solo play mode
+- ✅ All tests passing (unit, integration, e2e)
+
+---
+
+## 20. Dependencies
+
+### Existing Systems to Leverage
+- ✅ Current arcade session management
+- ✅ Existing WebSocket infrastructure (socket-server.ts)
+- ✅ Database setup (PostgreSQL)
+- ✅ Guest player system (from GameModeContext)
+
+### New Dependencies (if needed)
+- None! All can be built with existing stack
+
+---

+ * - Game continues indefinitely until player quits
+ * - Time-of-day cycle repeats every 60 seconds
+ *
