Suggestion: in my opinion, the following would greatly improve the game implementation
Detailed description
• Please explain your suggestion precisely and concisely so that it's as easy as possible to understand what you mean.
Games with 12, 18, and 22 objectives (Very short, Short, and Normal length games) all appear the same when viewed listed in the Play Now lobby. If I join a game and then realize it is a "Very short" game, it can be difficult to quit without requiring several attempts. Conversely, taking the time to view the game to verify the game length might mean getting "scooped" by another player.• What is your browser?
Google Chrome v120

that is a something which is BGA related and nto directly to the game. But I checked to see how it looks for me.
And luckily I see the game length option. Here is a screenshot (in german) imgur.com/UHviE28
In the middle I see the game length which are different to my current setting on the right side. If I change that on the right side the middle information will update accordingly.

Unfortunately, it isn't visible in the original "Play Now" lobby. Below is a link to images of:
1) A Framework game table open for joining, where the Game Length setting of 'Very short, Short, or Normal' is not shown.
2) A contrasting example of Lost Cities games that do show the Game Length settings (1 round or 3 rounds).
