No sign-up, no server. One player creates a game code, the other joins with it - send the codes in WhatsApp. Moves then go directly phone to phone.
Works best on the same Wi-Fi. On different networks, phones may need the free Google STUN helper below, and some mobile networks can still block direct play.
Player 1: create a game
Player 2: join a game
Game starts as soon as Player 1 connects.
