Questions, bug reports or ideas: ckaralis85@gmail.com. Please include your iPhone model and what you were doing when the problem happened.

Getting started

The first battle walks you through building a tower, creating a gem and setting it. Waves wait until you tap Start. The Gem guide on the title screen, the journey map and the battle menu explains every gem, grade and mix.

Purchases

Shards and charm rings are bought through Apple. To get charm rings back on a new device, open the Shop and tap Restore purchases. Shards are kept with your progress. For a refund, use Apple's Report a Problem page.

Your progress

Progress is saved on your iPhone and, when you are signed in to iCloud, kept in step across your devices. Settings → Erase all progress starts over; shards, shop items and charm rings you bought are kept.

Comfort settings

Settings has Color letters (a letter on every gem, colored monster and wave stone), Fewer effects (smoother on older iPhones and in big battles) and Screen shake.
