🎮 How to Play Reign and Rumble via Steam Remote Play Together
Reign and Rumble supports Steam Remote Play Together, a free Steam feature that lets you play local multiplayer games online with your friends — as if you were on the same couch!

Reign and Rumble installed on the host's PC.
A Steam account for each player (free).
A stable internet connection (wired/Ethernet is recommended for the host).
A controller for every player (including the host).

🎮 Steps for the HOST (the player who owns the game)
Launch Steam and log in to your account.
[Important] Enable Steam Overlay (if not already enabled):
Go to Steam > Settings > In-Game.
Check “Enable the Steam Overlay while in-game”.

Once you're in the game menu, open the Steam overlay: → Press Shift + Tab on keyboard (or the Steam button on your controller).
In your Friends List, right-click on a friend and select: 🎮 Remote Play Together
