# Spectator Mode

Galactic Ratz introduces an engaging **Spectator Mode** for players who prefer to watch the action and participate through wagering. This feature enhances community involvement and offers additional avenues for interaction within the game.

**Key Features:**

* **Live Match Viewing**: Spectators can watch live PvP and Team vs. Team battles, experiencing the excitement in real-time.
* **Wagering System**: Spectators have the option to place bets on their favorite players or teams. A secondary betting pool is created, with a portion of the tokens redistributed to successful bettors.
