+# Multiplayer Synchronization Architecture
+
+## Current State: Single-User Multi-Tab Sync
+
+### How it Works
+
+**Client-Side Flow:**
+
+1. User opens game in Tab A and Tab B
+2. Both tabs create WebSocket connections via `useArcadeSocket()`
+3. Both emit `join-arcade-session` with `userId`
+4. Server adds both sockets to `arcade:${userId}` room
+
+**When User Makes a Move (from Tab A):**
+
+```typescript
+// Client (Tab A)
+sendMove({ type: 'FLIP_CARD', playerId: 'player-1', data: { cardId: 'card-5' } })
+
+// Optimistic update applied locally
+state = applyMoveOptimistically(state, move)
+
+// Socket emits to server
+socket.emit('game-move', { userId, move })
+```
+
+**Server Processing:**
+
+```typescript
+// socket-server.ts line 71
+socket.on('game-move', async (data) => {
+  // Validate move
+  const result = await applyGameMove(data.userId, data.move)
+
+  if (result.success) {
+    // ✅ Broadcast to ALL tabs of this user
+    io.to(`arcade:${data.userId}`).emit('move-accepted', {
+      gameState: result.session.gameState,
+      version: result.session.version,
+      move: data.move
+    })
+  }
+})
+```
+
+**Both Tabs Receive Update:**
+
+```typescript
+// Client (Tab A and Tab B)
+socket.on('move-accepted', (data) => {
+  // Update server state
+  optimistic.handleMoveAccepted(data.gameState, data.version, data.move)
+
+  // Tab A: Remove from pending queue (was optimistic)
+  // Tab B: Just sync with server state (wasn't expecting it)
+})
+```
+
+### Key Components
+
+1. **`useOptimisticGameState`** - Manages optimistic updates
+   - Keeps `serverState` (last confirmed by server)
+   - Keeps `pendingMoves[]` (not yet confirmed)
+   - Current state = serverState + all pending moves applied
+
+2. **`useArcadeSession`** - Combines socket + optimistic state
+   - Connects socket
+   - Applies moves optimistically
+   - Sends moves to server
+   - Handles server responses
+
+3. **Socket Rooms** - Server-side broadcast channels
+   - `arcade:${userId}` - All tabs of one user
+   - Each socket can be in multiple rooms
+   - `io.to(room).emit()` broadcasts to all sockets in that room
+
+4. **Session Storage** - Database
+   - One session per user (userId is unique key)
+   - Contains `gameState`, `version`, `roomId`
+   - Optimistic locking via version number
+
+---
+
+## Required: Room-Based Multi-User Sync
+
+### The Goal
+
+Multiple users in the same room at `/arcade/room` should all see synchronized game state:
+
+- User A (2 tabs): Tab A1, Tab A2
+- User B (1 tab): Tab B1
+- User C (2 tabs): Tab C1, Tab C2
+
+When User A makes a move in Tab A1:
+- **All of User A's tabs** see the move (Tab A1, Tab A2)
+- **All of User B's tabs** see the move (Tab B1)
+- **All of User C's tabs** see the move (Tab C1, Tab C2)
+
+### The Challenge
+
+Current architecture only broadcasts within one user:
+```typescript
+// ❌ Only reaches User A's tabs
+io.to(`arcade:${userA}`).emit('move-accepted', ...)
+```
+
+We need to broadcast to the entire room:
+```typescript
+// ✅ Reaches all users in the room
+io.to(`game:${roomId}`).emit('move-accepted', ...)
+```
+
+### The Solution
+
+#### 1. Add Room-Based Game Socket Room
+
+When a user joins `/arcade/room`, they join TWO socket rooms:
+
+```typescript
+// socket-server.ts - extend join-arcade-session
+socket.on('join-arcade-session', async ({ userId, roomId }) => {
+  // Join user's personal room (for multi-tab sync)
+  socket.join(`arcade:${userId}`)
+
+  // If this session is part of a room, also join the game room
+  if (roomId) {
+    socket.join(`game:${roomId}`)
+    console.log(`🎮 User ${userId} joined game room ${roomId}`)
+  }
+
+  // Send current session state...
+})
+```
+
+#### 2. Broadcast to Both Rooms
+
+When processing moves for room-based sessions:
+
+```typescript
+// socket-server.ts - modify game-move handler
+socket.on('game-move', async (data) => {
+  const result = await applyGameMove(data.userId, data.move)
+
+  if (result.success && result.session) {
+    const moveAcceptedData = {
+      gameState: result.session.gameState,
+      version: result.session.version,
+      move: data.move,
+    }
+
+    // Broadcast to user's own tabs (for optimistic update reconciliation)
+    io.to(`arcade:${data.userId}`).emit('move-accepted', moveAcceptedData)
+
+    // If this is a room-based session, ALSO broadcast to all room members
+    if (result.session.roomId) {
+      io.to(`game:${result.session.roomId}`).emit('move-accepted', moveAcceptedData)
+      console.log(`📢 Broadcasted move to room ${result.session.roomId}`)
+    }
+  }
+})
+```
+
+**Why broadcast to both?**
+- `arcade:${userId}` - So the acting user's tabs can reconcile their optimistic updates
+- `game:${roomId}` - So all other users in the room receive the update
+
+#### 3. Client Handles Own vs. Other Moves
+
+The client already handles this correctly via optimistic updates:
+
+```typescript
+// User A (Tab A1) - Makes move
+sendMove({ type: 'FLIP_CARD', ... })
+// → Applies optimistically immediately
+// → Sends to server
+// → Receives move-accepted
+// → Reconciles: removes from pending queue
+
+// User B (Tab B1) - Sees move from User A
+// → Receives move-accepted (unexpected)
+// → Reconciles: clears pending queue, syncs with server state
+// → Result: sees User A's move immediately
+```
+
+The beauty is that `handleMoveAccepted()` already handles both cases:
+- **Own move**: Remove from pending queue
+- **Other's move**: Clear pending queue (since server state is now ahead)
+
+#### 4. Pass roomId in join-arcade-session
+
+Client needs to send roomId when joining:
+
+```typescript
+// hooks/useArcadeSocket.ts
+const joinSession = useCallback((userId: string, roomId?: string) => {
+  if (!socket) return
+  socket.emit('join-arcade-session', { userId, roomId })
+}, [socket])
+
+// hooks/useArcadeSession.ts
+useEffect(() => {
+  if (connected && autoJoin && userId) {
+    // Get roomId from session or room context
+    const roomId = getRoomId() // Need to provide this
+    joinSession(userId, roomId)
+  }
+}, [connected, autoJoin, userId, joinSession])
+```
+
+---
+
+## Implementation Plan
+
+### Phase 1: Server-Side Changes
+
+**File: `socket-server.ts`**
+
+1. ✅ Accept `roomId` in `join-arcade-session` event
+   ```typescript
+   socket.on('join-arcade-session', async ({ userId, roomId }) => {
+     socket.join(`arcade:${userId}`)
+
+     // Join game room if session is room-based
+     if (roomId) {
+       socket.join(`game:${roomId}`)
+     }
+
+     // Rest of logic...
+   })
+   ```
+
+2. ✅ Broadcast to room in `game-move` handler
+   ```typescript
+   if (result.success && result.session) {
+     const moveData = {
+       gameState: result.session.gameState,
+       version: result.session.version,
+       move: data.move,
+     }
+
+     // Broadcast to user's tabs
+     io.to(`arcade:${data.userId}`).emit('move-accepted', moveData)
+
+     // ALSO broadcast to room if room-based session
+     if (result.session.roomId) {
+       io.to(`game:${result.session.roomId}`).emit('move-accepted', moveData)
+     }
+   }
+   ```
+
+3. ✅ Handle room disconnects
+   ```typescript
+   socket.on('disconnect', () => {
+     // Leave all rooms (handled automatically by socket.io)
+     // But log for debugging
+     if (currentUserId && currentRoomId) {
+       console.log(`User ${currentUserId} left game room ${currentRoomId}`)
+     }
+   })
+   ```
+
+### Phase 2: Client-Side Changes
+
+**File: `hooks/useArcadeSocket.ts`**
+
+1. ✅ Add roomId parameter to joinSession
+   ```typescript
+   export interface UseArcadeSocketReturn {
+     // ... existing
+     joinSession: (userId: string, roomId?: string) => void
+   }
+
+   const joinSession = useCallback((userId: string, roomId?: string) => {
+     if (!socket) return
+     socket.emit('join-arcade-session', { userId, roomId })
+   }, [socket])
+   ```
+
+**File: `hooks/useArcadeSession.ts`**
+
+2. ✅ Accept roomId in options
+   ```typescript
+   export interface UseArcadeSessionOptions<TState> {
+     userId: string
+     roomId?: string // NEW
+     initialState: TState
+     applyMove: (state: TState, move: GameMove) => TState
+     // ... rest
+   }
+
+   export function useArcadeSession<TState>(options: UseArcadeSessionOptions<TState>) {
+     const { userId, roomId, ...optimisticOptions } = options
+
+     // Auto-join with roomId
+     useEffect(() => {
+       if (connected && autoJoin && userId) {
+         joinSession(userId, roomId)
+       }
+     }, [connected, autoJoin, userId, roomId, joinSession])
+
+     // ... rest
+   }
+   ```
+
+**File: `app/arcade/matching/context/ArcadeMemoryPairsContext.tsx`**
+
+3. ✅ Get roomId from room data and pass to session
+   ```typescript
+   import { useRoomData } from '@/hooks/useRoomData'
+
+   export function ArcadeMemoryPairsProvider({ children }: { children: ReactNode }) {
+     const { data: viewerId } = useViewerId()
+     const { roomData } = useRoomData()
+
+     // Arcade session integration
+     const { state, sendMove, ... } = useArcadeSession<MemoryPairsState>({
+       userId: viewerId || '',
+       roomId: roomData?.id, // NEW - pass room ID
+       initialState,
+       applyMove: applyMoveOptimistically,
+     })
+
+     // ... rest stays the same
+   }
+   ```
+
+### Phase 3: Testing
+
+1. **Multi-Tab Test (Single User)**
+   - Open `/arcade/room` in 2 tabs as User A
+   - Make move in Tab 1
+   - Verify Tab 2 updates immediately
+
+2. **Multi-User Test (Different Users)**
+   - User A opens `/arcade/room` in 1 tab
+   - User B opens `/arcade/room` in 1 tab (same room)
+   - User A makes move
+   - Verify User B sees move immediately
+
+3. **Multi-User Multi-Tab Test**
+   - User A: 2 tabs (Tab A1, Tab A2)
+   - User B: 2 tabs (Tab B1, Tab B2)
+   - User A makes move in Tab A1
+   - Verify all 4 tabs update
+
+4. **Rapid Move Test**
+   - User A and User B both make moves rapidly
+   - Verify no conflicts
+   - Verify all moves are processed in order
+
+---
+
+## Edge Cases to Handle
+
+### 1. User Leaves Room Mid-Game
+
+**Current behavior:** Session persists, user can rejoin
+
+**Required behavior:**
+- If user leaves room (HTTP POST to `/api/arcade/rooms/[roomId]/leave`):
+  - Delete their session
+  - Emit `session-ended` to their tabs
+  - Other users continue playing
+
+### 2. Version Conflicts
+
+**Already handled** by optimistic locking:
+- Each move increments version
+- Client tracks server version
+- If conflict detected, reconciliation happens automatically
+
+### 3. Session Without Room
+
+**Already handled** by session-manager.ts:
+- Sessions without `roomId` are considered orphaned
+- They're cleaned up on next access (lines 111-115)
+
+### 4. Multiple Users Same Move
+
+**Handled by server validation:**
+- Server processes moves sequentially
+- First valid move wins
+- Second move gets rejected if it's now invalid
+- Client rolls back rejected move
+
+---
+
+## Benefits of This Architecture
+
+1. **Reuses existing optimistic update system**
+   - No changes needed to client-side optimistic logic
+   - Already handles own vs. others' moves
+
+2. **Minimal changes required**
+   - Add `roomId` parameter (3 places)
+   - Add one `io.to()` broadcast (1 place)
+   - Wire up roomId from context (1 place)
+
+3. **Backward compatible**
+   - Non-room sessions still work (roomId is optional)
+   - Solo play unaffected
+
+4. **Scalable**
+   - Socket.io handles multiple rooms efficiently
+   - No N² broadcasting (room-based is O(N))
+
+5. **Already tested pattern**
+   - Multi-tab sync proves the broadcast pattern works
+   - Just extending to more sockets (different users)
+
+---
+
+## Security Considerations
+
+### 1. Validate Room Membership
+
+Before processing moves, verify user is in the room:
+
+```typescript
+// session-manager.ts - in applyGameMove()
+const session = await getArcadeSession(userId)
+
+if (session.roomId) {
+  // Verify user is a member of this room
+  const membership = await getRoomMember(session.roomId, userId)
+  if (!membership) {
+    return { success: false, error: 'User not in room' }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### 2. Verify Player Ownership
+
+Ensure users can only make moves for their own players:
+
+```typescript
+// Already handled in validator
+// move.playerId must be in session.activePlayers
+// activePlayers are owned by the userId making the move
+```
+
+This is already enforced by how activePlayers are set up in the room.
+
+---
+
+## Performance Considerations
+
+### 1. Broadcasting Overhead
+
+- **Current**: 1 user × N tabs = N broadcasts per move
+- **New**: M users × N tabs each = (M×N) broadcasts per move
+- **Impact**: Linear with room size, not quadratic
+- **Acceptable**: Socket.io is optimized for this
+
+### 2. Database Queries
+
+- No change: Still 1 database write per move
+- Session is stored per-user, not per-room
+- Room data is separate (cached, not updated per move)
+
+### 3. Memory
+
+- Each socket joins 2 rooms instead of 1
+- Negligible: Socket.io uses efficient room data structures
+
+---
+
+## Testing Checklist
+
+### Unit Tests
+
+- [ ] `useArcadeSocket` accepts and passes roomId
+- [ ] `useArcadeSession` accepts and passes roomId
+- [ ] Server joins `game:${roomId}` room when roomId provided
+

+- [ ] Single user, 2 tabs: both tabs sync
+- [ ] 2 users, 1 tab each: both users sync
+- [ ] 2 users, 2 tabs each: all 4 tabs sync
+- [ ] User leaves room: session deleted, others continue
+- [ ] Rapid concurrent moves: all processed correctly
+
+### Manual Tests
+
+- [ ] Open room in 2 browsers (different users)
+- [ ] Play full game to completion
+- [ ] Verify scores sync correctly
+- [ ] Verify turn changes sync correctly
+- [ ] Verify game completion syncs correctly
