New Battle UI Keep it clean. We've implemented a more minimalist approach to our battle UI that shows you what you need in the heat of battle and nothing more. New Tutorial We've revamped the tutorial to focus on core game mechanics - solving and building - and less on UI navigat

Real-time & Reset coming Thursday May 17th, 2018!
Real-time is finally here! Prepare to experience Relik in all its real-time glory. Battle other players head to head, build Factions, sharpen your skills in practice mode, chat and trade in real-time, use new themes, and more! Server-wide Puzzle / Currency Reset We have good news
Real-time is finally here!
Prepare to experience Relik in all its real-time glory. Battle other players head to head, build Factions, sharpen your skills in practice mode, chat and trade in real-time, use new themes, and more!
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. (eg: if 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
