Where is the game I was invited to?

In a mini-test (before I put in a lot of work and invite people I don't live with to a game) - I set up a game (nothin but a word on the screen, its a test, after all), made my daughter a character, and sent her an invite, and launched the game She accepted the invite, created an account and.... no game. Nothing. She exited out of roll20, went back to her email, reclicked the invite, logged back into roll20... and no game?!? I checked to make sure the "game" was still launched. She exited roll20 again. I sent her the invite link instead of invite directly from roll20, (maybe the original was bad?), she opened her email, clicked link, signed into roll20... WHERE IS THE GAME SUPPOSED TO BE?? Also, I didn't say, she (we, I was over her shoulder) clicked through any sensible navigation (maybe its under "my Games"? maybe "Home"? nope. If this doesnt get a lot more user freindly a lot more quiickly, I'm out for good.
Did you actually create a game with a home screen? As that is where it should have taken her - to the home screen of your game. There are a number of tutorials both here and  on YouTube. Roll20 is a great gaming system.
Yes I created a home screen, no that is not where it took her - it took her to a normal account homepage - no reference to game. Extra WTFery - though I watched her accept the invitation 5+times from multiple links, my GM account said her invite was still pending.Called had a friend try it 15 minutes later, worked fine. We then tried on a different computer and it worked fine. Tried from the original computer again and is was glitchy (started with a screen saying she was denied access to her account that held for about 45 seconds) then was fine. I guess I am blaming Microsoft Edge (since from Chrome worked consistently from both a Mac and a PC, but from Microsoft edge did not). So... problem solved, but trust of |great gaming system" tarnished from step one (for me, ease of use is much more a signifier of greatness than robustness of offerings).
FYI, Chrome and Firefox are the only officially supported browsers for Roll20.
