Detailed description

• Please copy/paste the error message you see on your screen, if any.
In the setup phase of the game the Host with the red coloured name places the starting Red and White tiles, then the Guest with the White coloured name has a choice to play Red or White.
The instructions that appear say "You must keep colors or place a red stack and swap colors" then right beside is a keep colours button.
I found this quite confusing even though I have played tumbleweed previously. Essentially since who will play which colour is yet to be decided, it's confusing to offer new players to keep or swap colours. It had to be pointed out to me that the usernames have colours initially otherwise I wouldn't have seen it.
What about an alternate phrasing like " To play first with Red, place a red stack. To play second with white, click this button" which was suggested by Alex in the discord. This again assumes the "keep colours" button appears beside the message or nearby depending on the device.
Let me know what you think or if this report seems unclear.
