Server-wide Puzzle / Currency Reset
We have good news and bad news, and they're both the same: all player puzzles and currencies (with the exception of gems) will be reset for Relik RT.
This will ensure players start off on mostly even footing for RT
A free, exclusive Relik Theme for all early adopters At the time of reset on Thursday, all existing players will receive an exclusive "Gamer" theme. After May 17th, 2018, we will never release this theme again to anyone - ever.
- Any currencies acquired through in-game purchases will be refunded. (egif you spent $0.99 on 100 gems, 100 gems will be added to your balance on reset)
Gems, Themes, and Theme Cards will not be affected by the reset.
Match Queues
The Good Matches are 1v1 so only 2 players are needed per match You can do almost anything in game - like build your Relik - while in Queue The Bad Active players dwindled over the 5 months it took us to make one huge update that works best with a lot of active players. Temporary Adjustment Players in queue for over a set period of time may be offered a Bot. Don't worry. She's harder, temporary, and balanced so players cannot bot boost.
Other Changes
The new format does not work well with clocks or weekly leagues so both have been removed.
Your help
Bugs happen. Your patience (and bug report if you like) is much appreciated! Help us minimize match queues. Please tell a friend about Relik. Happy Solving! - the Iron 27 team
