I may be missing something, but it looks as though one person still has to play with the touch controls while the other three can use whatever controllers are hooked up. Alas, it’s awkward on the iPhone and iPad when you’re playing on the same device. I suspect it works better on the Apple TV, although I don’t have one on hand so I could try it out.
