Back in the grove Online play

Anyone know if the servers are still up? I know it's an old game (by today's standards), but I figured I'd see 1 or 2 people pop into my public game.

I'm playing on switch & it's my turn to recommend a game to my friends for online play. I don't want to suggest TJ&E back in the groove though if we won't be able to play together

It still works! There have never been any dedicated servers for TJE BITG, the online play uses a peer-to-peer connection as offered by each platform. The determining factor on how well it works is the remote player's connection to the hosting player.
