Http can still work, depending on what kind of game it is. For example
a game where only the current player can make decisions and the other
players just sit and watch (like Risk), or a game where each player submits
a move and the server applies the game rules to resolve the outcome (like
Rock-Scissors-Paper).
But a truly interactive game would probably require something more, like
an active socket connection.
