Ok figured it out.
Just got a very similar error at the end of a battle.
I play in English and everything is working well.
But my son, who plays in French, is seeing this in Darkstone :
Thanks, weâll look into it.
Translation should appear, next time you run the game (make sure that you see the game update, if it doesnât it wonât have the fix in it).
Itâs solved. Thanks!
I second what odin said. An answer would be nice. Leaving console users in the dark isnât good customer service. And now 505 have close their forums by the looks of it.
The answer is âyesâ. As for when, I doubt anyone has a solid answer other than 505 games. I just checked their site, no forum that I could find but they do have support pages for GoW, I suggest sending a ticket.
Seeing as theyâre not mentioning Wild Plains or GroshâNak on their list of kingdoms from three days ago, I would bet theyâre pretty far behind. But I wouldnât know since Iâm on PC/Mobile.
The thing is, I would rather a straight answer thatâs quick than having to send tickets to them all the time. Give how buggy theyâve made the game with the latest patch, thatâs a lot of tickets. I posted on their forums a few days ago and suddenly theyâve disappeared. May I ask why 505 was chosen? Theyâve been slow to update and seem unable to release a patch without major issues. Not exactly what you want for your console customers.
Hey Folks,
With regards to Darkstone & Consoles, weâve been trying to answer this question as best we can, and where we can, so apologies for being a bit slow to get to it here.
Yes, the intention is DEFINITELY to get all the kingdoms from mobile to console. I know that Maugrim Woods and Grosh-Nak are currently being worked on for an upcoming update. After that, we fully expect that Darkstone and beyond will make their way over there too. Hopefully over time, we will get out releases closer and closer together to avoid confusion.

Disappearing forums. Thatâs ugly. And unfortunately, 505 are once again the only ones with the answers to that (probably). As for why them in the first place⌠beats me. @Sirrian want to weigh in here? Sounds like trouble. (OR HEâS HERE ALREADY.)
I can definitely relate, Iâve been trying to help out some other game and now the only two people from the company who we ever talked to are no longer of that company, and no-one else is stepping up. And however many issues Console GoW has, that one has way more things wrong with it and stretching over a much longer timeframe. So I would also like GoW to not go down that road. PC/Mobile doesnât have any of those problems of course.
Obviously we need two Sirrians or weâll get nothing done on Consoles.
⌠and now hes making me look silly by trying to get him after hes shown up.

I take it the devs here know what type of games 505 actually developed, right? Theyâre iconic for being awful, so much so that they are actually collectable.
I donât see whatâs wrong with Terraria but other than that I know basically nothing.
Terraria is the only good one I know of.
Iâm referring to PS2 and before.
Edit, just checked. They published terraria. They didnât make it. They have a long list of bad games published too, lol.
@Shimrra, donât wish for 2 of me please - weâd fight like crazy 
Not sure whatâs happening with 505 forums. I actually wasnât aware of them (Iâve had my head buried in 108 stuff for so long!) But if anything, I suspect they might like to have all Gems of War traffic centralized in one place - here. I shall ask around and endeavour to find out though.
I do know the Pipeworks/505 team are working hard right now to address any bugs in the console version. Gems of War, for all its simplicity, is actually kind of a complex beast in many ways. Theyâre going through right now what we went through about a year ago when we released on mobile/PC.

The 505 forums covered gems of war, terraria and a few other games. Wasnât solely GOW. There hadnât been replies in days though⌠It seemed like they werenât bothered about answering questions on their forums.
@ruzin, 505 are primarily a publisher of other peopleâs games, following a traditional publisher model.
Some of the 505 Games titles may or may not appeal to everybody. Terraria and Two Brothers certainly received a lot of critical praise. And games like the Payday series have been hugely successful (though we know theyâve suffered some technical & community issues recently).
Like all publishers, there will be some hits and some misses, sure, but I think their record is as good or better than most.
I canât speak for games released before we worked with 505, but the reason WE decided to partner with them is that the guys we deal with at 505 really DO understand game development. They have a great team on the publisher side, many of whom are successful ex-devâs with decades of experience. Theyâve been a joy to work with. As a developer, quite often the quality of your game can be severely limited by a publishing partner that doesnât support you or understand what youâre doing. That has not been the case here⌠the 505 team are fully supportive of us, and have helped us make the game better in countless ways.
For the record⌠Iâm saying none of this because I HAVE to⌠that wouldnât be my style. 
Anyway, let me dig around a bit over the weekend, and see what I can learn about the forums there.

To be fair, the mobile/PC versions were likely a bit simpler to work with considering the GoW team built it from the ground up. (Maybe first floor if they took the base from a Puzzle Quest game.)
While Pipeworks/505Games on the other hand are a group who like to dabble in building things, and were simply given a couple old bicycles from a professional Bike Company and were asked to build off them. And they did essentially the same thing with the two bikes, but the balance is currently off on both because of all the features theyâve added recently. Now they are slowly working towards a stable build closer to what the original Bike Company builds as a profession, itâs just coming along a bit slower than expected.
And there we go! An analogy about bikes to help explain two gaming companies working to build a great game for separate platforms! I may or may not be all sane in the head atm, so Iâll just ride off now.

Please all the focus on digging 1.0.8, we need it before the shop closes, as it will be a huge waiting if we need for them to reopen again. Sorry for being a bit impatient, but the update seems like a big game changer so I canât wait to test out what is going on.
