You just should find the game ID you want to spectate and browse this:

https://overthrown.io/game/:id

Like

https://overthrown.io/game/38c752cf-40a2-4dd1-8c97-631dd56a4...

You can find game id's in the Websocket frames using inspector tools on chrome.

Nothing interesting though. I think most games have just begun and with 12h turns not much has happened yet.

I was spectating w/ Chrome and it figuratively melted my late 2015 MBP (sans discrete graphics card). I hate to think what this would do to a mobile device's battery.

The curse of HTML5 games. It's a damn shame because it would've become a great medium. My tin foil hat theory is that it was purposely sidelined so it wouldn't detract from the mobile gaming craze that was growing at the time.
