I have decided that the altered gems on the board make it very hard to play… ---

It’s got a big hat on, and a beard… I don’t get how people are mistaking it… ---

A lot of negativity in here, as expected…and that is even from a minor change that is very very temporary…fantastic, well done! 😅 😂 Great to see some changes to the gems even if it is temporary, they used to stay the same 365 days a year, so yes to this. Hope there will come more changes like this in the future, even if it is temporary. 😍 ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/gemsofwar/original/3X/4/5/45665d8a521316fcd3b46610496f2faa674d2f74.png) ---

I really wonder what we will get on: - Halloween: Monster themed gems like Green Frankestein’s monster, Brow Werewolves and such and Pumpkin Lanterns shaped as Skulls? - Christmas. Maybe some x-mas tree decoration globes as gems of each color and skulls ornated with those “circular-decoration-that-people-puts-on-the-door-whose-name-i-don’t-know”? ---

I will admit that the skulls scared me for a few seconds, but that is because I am quite sick right now and was watching some Leprechaun horror movie. ---

That makes me feel a little better. Thanks 🙂 I was watching Leprechaun 4: in Space. I usually skip cheap horror movies, but the description was kinda funny ---

> [@Eika](#): > > You must not watch ‘The Thing’ from 1982.. 😅 Why not? Such a lovely classic… Now back at the comemorative themed gems: @Sirrian while we are close to a new big update would it be possible to add a configuration option to activate or deactivate themed gems and such? I’m not sure if it would delay the release of the new content, but maybe a little box that when checked would “fish for” the images of the themed gems from a new picture folder to be added into the game’ files and it would make it easier to introduce new themed-gems in the future as well as allowing people to not use these said gems if they have any problem with those be it colorblind issues or “grumpy-pants-issues”. What do you say? ---

I think this is fantastic! 1. I hope the developers continue this for other Holidays. 2. I hope they learn from this as well, to be very aware of how the colors they incorporate for the event effect gameplay. @Lun outstanding post on the colors. ---

I like the idea, but my eyes got tired of the new skulls pretty soon. I wish there were an option to toggle event gems on/off. ---

I’m grateful those are not available to mobile. I suggest to anyone on steam who is color blind to download mobile version, link accounts, and play on mobile while the event is running 😛 I’m not color blind but the new gems just aren’t appealing to me visually. I mean, I don’t mind if general consensus is DO IT, but if there were a vote, I would choose no. ---

I honestly just wanted to see them in my game. I think it would be cool however in my current state im sure i would constantly confuse skulls and brown. ---

Quick real question about the bonus gems in the sale If the slash out original was 100 gems and says 145 gems - that means that the two bonuses of 25 for VIP and 20 for Patricks day are part of the 145 - correct?
