Random thoughts on the blocks on the board… as a PQ veteran, I’m surprised it’s taken this long for them to be added…

Thoughts:

- I think in PQ they didn’t drop when you destroyed gems below them. I think I prefer them this way though
- most people will still use exploders so these blocks will be a temporary annoyance for a couple turns before explosions rinse them away
- they are potentially a pain to loop teams, restricting the gem combos to keep colour-picking for loops - which is a shame, as I like loop teams, and they actually need skill to play
- conversely they help gem spawners, as they compress the space where gems are created
- I haven’t checked yet - do ‘remove’ or ‘destroy’ spell effects also remove blocks, or is it only explosions?
